One of the ways to solve the current problems in the Armenian army
is establishment of a military Ombudsman's Institute, Chairman of
the Armenian NA Standing Committee on Defense, National Security and
Internal Affairs Hrayr Karapetyan told a press conference on Monday.
According to the parliamentarian, it is impossible to solve all the
problems in a day, as the army is the mirror of the society. Today
there are officers in the Armenian army, who do not deserve their
titles. Karapetyan referred to the corruption as a rooted negative
factor in the army. "There are officers involved in corruption,
humiliating and abusing soldiers. In spite of their performed great
services for their homeland, these officers should be deprived of
their titles. Those, who had struggled for Nagorno-Karabakh, should
not think there is permissiveness for them. On the contrary, their
conduct should serve an example for the servicemen," the MP said.
Karapetyan stressed today reforms are implemented in the Armenian
army and it is in a recovery stage.
