After the establishment of the Soviet regime, these people gradually repatriated, the last Russian resettler leaving the village in 1956. Parallel with the Russians’ emigration, beginning with the year 1937, Vladimirovka was inhabited by a number of families from the adjacent over-populated Armenian villages. The Armenian resettlers who were mainly from Poka and Heshtia constituted 52 houses with 286 residents in 1988.
