HRAPARAK: KAREN AVAGYAN AND ARMENIA'S ARMY
Tert.am
26.10.11
Speaking in Parliament Oct. 25, Karen Avagyan, leader of the youth
wing of the Republican Party of Armenia (RPA), "delivered a lecture"
for those critical of the present situation in the Armenian army,
which claims human lives.
"The Army is a holy thing!", "Have a heart!" were the slogans Mr.
Avagyan was chanting in Parliament.
The newspaper responds: "What does Karen Avagyan know about the army
and the situation there if he did not serve a single day? His CV shows
he graduated from Yerevan Medical University. He took post-graduate
courses and defended a thesis. In such a 'classical way' he evaded
military service."
Of course, RPA members have the right to consider the army holy.
However, they must be the ones that have been in contacts with the
"holy angels" as recruits, not as Parliament members, the newspaper
writes.
