KARABAKH WAR VETERANS MEET WITH DEPUTY DEFENSE MINISTER TONOYAN
A group of Karabakh war veterans led by retired Colonel Volodya
Avetisian met today with Deputy Defense Minister of Armenia David
Tonoyan and members of the commission set up for solution of veterans'
problems. The meeting took place in the Defense Ministry. V. Avetisian
told Aysor.am: "We are satisfied with the meeting. They understand
our demands and problems and are ready to help us. Prior to that,
we met the minister of labor and social affairs. He also offered
help, but in order to receive it, it is necessary to make the lists
of veterans more accurate. The Defense Ministry will help us in this
matter," the colonel said.
According to him, the whole package of proposals made by Karabakh
war veterans was discussed at the meeting with David Tonoyan today.
"The law on voluntary military service and our pensions were among the
issues discussed. We have to wait for ten days, until some inaccuracies
are eliminated. Then a small group of veterans will meet with Tonoyan
again," Avetisian said. He stressed that Karabakh war veterans believe
that their problems will be solved.
