YEREVAN. - Wars do not end by the signing of ceasefires, but rather
when generations learn lessons from wars, Armenian Minister of
Defense Seyran Ohanyan stated during the 9th congress of Yerkrapah
(War Veterans'~R) Volunteer Union (YVU).
"When the first self-defense detachments were formed, the glorious
image of the brave Armenian fedayin, liberator, and defender was
defined yet again. In the absence of a regular army, it stood up and
gloriously carried out its mission.
All were Yerkrapahs. They were the decisive force owing to which the
fight turned into a patriotic war. It was thanks to the will and the
great efforts that the volunteer detachments united around one union.
The halted but not ended war compels us to fight under 'ceasefire'
conditions.
The adversary always attempts to looks for a weak spot in our defense.
[And] The occurrences at the line of contact and the incidents at
the military units cause concern. Under such conditions the society
awaits convincing and comforting, and for the outside, warning and
effective, words.
The Motherland always remembers its children. The Defense Ministry
actively assists in spreading patriotic ideas among the society"
