ARMENIAN ARMY 'PENITENTIARY INSTITUTION' FOR PEOPLE - WOMAN POLITICIAN

Armenia is on the brink of war, but the people view the Armenian army
as a penitentiary institution, Lyudmila Sargsyan, Chairwoman of the
Social-Democratic Hnchakian Party, told journalists in Oct. 14.
"Instead of gaining military knowledge we have to deal with murders
and suicides. And Minister Seyran Ohanyan claims he is reforming the
army," she added.
"Armenia's incumbent authorities allow different diplomatic missions
to behave in such a way that you get the impression that we are not an
independent state. For example, the Russian diplomat's behavior in the
presence of [Secretary of Armenia's National Security Council] Artur
Baghdasaryan. Who is he to force us to open Russian-language schools?
And we are ready to do their will! The people feel humiliated and
think of whether they need such independence at all," L. Sargsyan said.
