Armenia dispatches troops to Iraq
Erevan, 25 December - The Armenian Defence Minister Serge Sarkisyan
revealed that Armenia is preparing to dispatch 46 military experts,
among them a comunications officer, a platoon commander, three
doctors, ten sappers and thirty drivers to Iraq to operate as part of
the Polish contingent. The Armenian Parliament had previously given
approval to send the expert team to Iraq for one year.
Sarkisyan declared he was well aware that the Armenian team would
face threats to their lives, but nonetheless, he was convinced that
"more dangers will emerge" if Armenia refuses to participate in what
he described as the post-war stabilization of Iraq.
