"We all have to adjust to our new homes, otherwise we won't be able to survive." -Anna Karapetyan (Russian citizen, now living in New York City) June 14, 2013: Lachin/Berdzor, Nagorno-Karabakh- Garo, 10 year-old Syrian refugee, aims his slingshot near the Armenian Church that sits in the backyard of the house he shares with other refugee families in the unrecognized Caucasian republic of Nagorno-Karabakh. Several hundred Syrian-Armenian refugees, mostly from Qamishlii, have moved to the contested republic, where they have been given housing and loans to help them to restart their lives, although most are still struggling. When asked how they spent their days, one young resident, who is waiting to attend university in Yerevan, said, "We sit here and we watch the hills, and eventually the day passes."
