    ANNIVERSARY OF THE ARMENIAN ARMY

    YEREVAN, January 27. /ARKA/. RA Prime-Minister Andranik Margaryan
    congratulated citizens of the republic on the 13th anniversary of the
    Armenian Army. According to RA Government's Press Service Department,
    the greeting states that `the Armenian Army, formed during the
    difficult years of the Karabakh war imposed on our nation, is the
    best achievement of our independent state'. According to Margaryan,
    the competitive spirit and military-scientific potential of the
    newly-formed Armenian Armed Forces was based on the skills and
    experience of Armenian cadre officers hardened in the Soviet Army, on
    the bravery and self-sacrifice of volunteers faithful to their
    motherland as well as on infinite firmness and .love of freedom of
    the Armenian nation. `We cannot forget the heroic feats of our
    friends, brothers and sons who are buried in `Yerablur' which became
    a saint pantheon. They are an excellent example of self-sacrifice for
    the sake of our nation and our motherland for the future
    generations', according to the message of the Prime-Minister.
    As the message states, the Armenian Army today not only successfully
    defends state borders and the independence of Armenia, but also has
    its input in international peacekeeping processes. Margaryan noted
    that the authorities of the country will continue to care of the army
    and strengthen the fundaments of independent statehood and unanimity
    between the army, the state and the nation, which is an important
    precondition for further strengthening of the Armed Forces of
    Armenia.
    By the RA Government's decree as of January 28, 1992 RA ministry of
    Defense was established. That was the first decree signed by the
    first Minister of Defense of independent Armenia Vazgen Sargsyan. On
    September 25, 2002, RA NA made additions to the law on festivals and
    memorable days, according to which the Day of Army is celebrated on
    January 28 and is acknowledged as legal holiday. A.H.--0--
