In Georgia, 5 thousand inhabitants of Javakheti of Armenian descent have acquired Armenian citizenship, hiding this fact from the authorities.
They took this decision in order to simplify entry to Russia as labor migrants.
"We decided to acquire Armenian citizenship to be able to freely travel to Russia and get work," haqqin.az cited the new citizens of Armenia with reference to the TV channel 'Rustavi 2'.
However, everyone who acqired Armenian citizenship lost their citizenship of Georgia, as the country's constitution allows dual citizenship, but it's forbidden to have two citizenships.
