Residents of Syunik border villages need new sources of income – Arman Tatoyan

After the war, the border village population of Syunik province need new sources of income; new solutions are needed.

Many people have been deprived of their houses, pastures and lands because of the illegal actions of the Azerbaijani Armed Forces, and their rights continue to remain violated.

The video presents issues that people face; to assess their needs, I and the Head of Armenia Office of the UN Population Fund conducted a joint visit to Syunik province.

Various social issues were raised by people during the visits, and measures will be undertaken within our competences to assist in solving them.
