The population of Armenian ethnicity in Romania is 7, 5-10 thousand.
Armenians are mainly based in the cities of Bucharest, Konstanta and
PiteÃ…?ti. Currently the number of the Armenians in Romania is inclined
to reduction, because most of the Armenian young people move to the
countries of West Europe.
