About 200-300 Armenians currently living in China would like to return to their homeland, but they do not have money for the trip, Nazareth Yeramyan, who recently arrived in Armenia from the Chinese city of Guangzhou, told Armenian News - NEWS.am.

According to him, many of those wishing to return turned to the Armenian Embassy in China, but received no help.

Nazareth spent about 4-5 months in China. There, according to him, everything is calm and there is no panic.

However, since 18 cities were quarantined and would not have work there in the near future, he decided to return to his homeland and spend his free time here until the problems with coronavirus in China were resolved. Due to the situation in the country, many prices have risen there, said Nazareth.

According to him, at the airport in China, all passengers' temperature has been checked.

The passengers were also checked at the airport in Armenia and asked to fill out a form with various information.

There are no laboratory tests to diagnose coronavirus in Armenia, however, if necessary, biological samples of patients with suspected coronavirus will be sent to laboratories in the UK, Germany, the Netherlands or Russia, where they can confirm or deny the presence of the virus.
