The secretary of the Security Council [under the Armenian president],
Defence Minister Serzh Sarkisyan is in favour of introducing dual
citizenship in the country. Sarkisyan voiced this opinion at a meeting
with participants in the Baze-2004 all-Armenian youth forum in the
resort town of Dilizhan.
“Every Armenian has the right to have Armenian citizenship,” he said.
However, he believes that in this case, it is necessary to regulate
citizens’ duties such as service in the national army. Otherwise,
there should be some restrictions on dual citizenship, he said.
