YEREVAN, JANUARY 11, ARMENPRESS: A new shift of Armenian peacekeepers
carrying out peacekeeping mission in Afghanistan will depart for
Germany in the evening of January 11. The division of the Armenian
peacekeepers will get one-month corresponding training under German
command and will participate in exercises, Press Secretary to Armenian
Defense Minister Davit Karapetyan told Armenpress. The shift will
settle in Kunduz in February.
By the way, the information that a shift of peacekeepers arrives
today in Yerevan from Afghanistan is untrustworthy.
The 41-member platoon of the Armenian peacekeepers, which has been
carrying out mission since 2010, goes on meeting its commitment in
Kunduz Airport. Armenian peacekeepers also carry out mission in Kosovo.
Participation of the Armenian peacekeeping division in the missions
makes the country one of the active, though modest players of provision
of international security. That circumstance is highly assessed by
the country's partners, which is manifested through showing of expert,
consulting and financial support to Armenia.
