Syrian-Armenians continue coming to Armenia despite the fact that unlike Damascus, Homs and other cities with ongoing active hostilities it is relatively peaceful in Aleppo, where the largest Armenian community lives. Violence continues to escalate in the country, and today Syria's Minister of Defense was killed by a suicide bomber.
Habet Putuzian arrived in Armenia on July 9 with his wife, elder son and his family. They have rented an apartment in downtown Yerevan, however, have not decided yet whether to permanently reside in Armenia. The Putuzians have applied for double citizenship and will get their Armenian passports in a few days. The 73-year-old Syrian-Armenian has his own perspective on situation in Syria and considers it to be "a matter of revenge".
