At its session today, the Armenian government authorized the Armenian
Defence Ministry to manage the troops of civil defence.
Under the government's decision, the troops of civil defence of the
emergencies department under the Armenian government are subordinate
to the Armenian Defence Ministry, Arminfo learnt from the Armenian
government's press service.
We should note that under the law on the troops of civil defence which
came into force in May 2004, the government set the structure and the
number of troops of civil defence. The troops have the right to carry
and use fire-guns. When defending the country, the troops are
equipped with weapons and uniforms of the Armenian armed forces. The
military use of the troops of civil defence is regulated by the army
internal regulations and the order set by this law. Interference in
the activity of the troops of civil defence is prosecuted by the
law. The troops of civil defence are funded from the state budget and
other sources not banned by the Armenian legislation.
