"Which Armenians Are Refugees?", The New York Times, June 6, 1988
The article discusses the increasing emigration of Armenians from the Soviet Union to the U.S. and the debate over whether they should be classified as political refugees or economic immigrants. While refugees need to demonstrate a genuine fear of persecution, and are generally admitted to the U.S. legally, the numbers of economic immigrants are more restricted.
