    REAL REASONS OF SOLDIERS' DEATHS IN ARMY BLACKED OUT IN AZERBAIJAN

    19:35, 6 March, 2013

    YEREVAN, MARCH 6, ARMENPRESS: The problem of soldiers' deaths in
    non-combat conditions was discussed at a public hearing in the office
    of the Institute for Reporters Freedom and Safety on March 6. The
    meeting was organized by the Youth Club.

    As reports Armenpress, referring to "Turan" agency, representative of
    this NGO Hamid Huseynli said that in 2012, the losses of the armed
    forces of Azerbaijan totaled 97 people. From the beginning of 2013,
    the loss has reached 17, indicating a "catastrophic situation."

    According to Huseynli, claims that soldiers die of heart failure, or
    commit suicide do not reflect reality, but rather cover up the truth.

    The proposals heard in the Parliament to implement positions of
    psychologists in the army, and change the staff of medical and health
    committees was seen as "belated action."

    The military expert Uzeir Jafarli opined that some soldier deaths were
    for objective reasons, while the other part was subjective. Thus,
    the preparation of recruits does not consider the service in other
    geographic areas. For example, for young people from low-lying areas
    it is difficult to serve in the mountains.

    With regard to suicide and homicide of the military, they come from
    the injustice faced by the soldiers.

    The compulsion to wash the floors, clean the shoes and sanitation,
    cook food, etc. can be perceived as a humiliation and lead to
    tragedies. Therefore, these works should be transferred to civilians.

    Also it is necessary to establish effective educational work with
    staff, and bring religious staff to this.

    Also necessary is civilian control over the military, including food,
    health care, and treatment of personnel.

    It was also proposed to change the age of military service from 18-35
    to 20-27 years, and to transfer the army to NATO standards.

    The participants agreed to take part in a protest against the deaths
    of soldiers on March 10.
