    ARMY PROBLEMS SHOULD CONCERN ALL CITIZENS, SAYS ARMENIAN MP

    Tert.am
    25.10.11

    The problems existing in the army should concern all Armenians,
    Karen Avagyan, an MP from the ruling Republican Party of Armenia,
    said at the parliament on Tuesday.

    "The army issue is that of ours. If we try to look at it a little
    broadly, then [we will see] that the army is as our society,"
    said Avagyan.

    "The maladies of the army, the level of interpersonal relations,
    the values all transfer to the army," he explained.

    Speaking about the peaceful demonstrations by the parents and relatives
    of those conscripts killed in non-combat circumstances, Avagyan said
    their grief is acceptable and understandable.

    In October alone at least three soldiers were killed in the army in
    non-combat circumstances.

    Karen Avagyan, however, said he did not understand the actions of
    those who attempt to use these people's grief and pain for some
    political gains.

    "I hope that those doing orders will understand that the army defends
    not only my and your, but also their families," said Avagyan.

    "If we want the army to become perfect, we should conduct serious
    work at all levels of public life," he explained.

    "No propaganda, political goal can be justified, when it comes to
    the army," said Karen Avagyan.
