    Will Armenia send military contingent to Iraq?

    Assa-Irada, Azerbaijan
    Dec 16 2004

    Armenia will dispatch a 50-member military contingent, comprising
    doctors, field engineers and drivers, to Iraq in February 2005,
    according to the Armenian press reports.

    The Armenian officers will serve within the Polish military contingent
    120-140 kilometers south to Baghdad. The issue on sending military
    contingent to Iraq was discussed at the Armenian parliament in November
    on the initiative of President Robert Kocharian, the reports said.

    Meanwhile, Polish Defense Minister Jerzy Szmajdziński told Reuters
    that Poland will reduce its military contingent in Iraq from 2,500 to
    1,700 servicemen following the elections to be held in this country
    in February 2005.

    Foreign media reported earlier that Poland intends to withdraw its
    military contingent from Iraq by the end of next year.*
