Passports with code 070 granted Artsakh residents the same rights of  Armenian citizens until 2023

ArmInfo. Until 2023, passports  with code 070 granted Artsakh residents the same rights as Armenian citizens, except for the right to participate in elections. Artsakh  Ombudsman Gegham Stepanyan made this statement at the hearings at the  National Assembly of  Armenia on November 29.  He pointed out  that  in addition to the possibility of obtaining temporary protection  status, Artsakh residents were also being offered expedited  registration for Armenian citizenship. However, statistics show that  forcibly displaced Artsakh residents are hesitant to apply for  citizenship due to various reasons, both objective and subjective.  Gegham Stepanyan explained that the concerns of the Artsakh people  regarding obtaining Armenian citizenship are related, among other  things, to the exercise of their right to return.  "During  conversations with the Artsakh people, it is evident that the loss of  the opportunity to return raises significant concerns, and,  unfortunately, this issue has not been adequately addressed," the  Ombudsman explained.
