YEREVAN, FEBRUARY 3, ARMENPRESS: The organization of the military
conscription in Armenia by draw was quite an important change,
which proved that conscription should not be a way for some people to
make money. This mechanism of conscription brought to the situation,
where the corruption and patronage do not have their place now. The
Adviser to the Minister of Defense of the Republic of Armenia Gegham
Harutyunyan told Armenpress about it. “I think that during the
recent years the level of the public trust towards the conscription
process has considerably increased. Consistently policies are being
implemented to strengthen the principles of fairness and legality of
the conscription. The implementation of the draw was another step in
that direction. It came to inspire more trust that the corruption
and patronage must not happen and are omitted from the process of
conscription”, - said Harutyunyan.
According to him, the draw process is a transparent method, as it
is attended by the parents of the soldiers, who take the papers
from the corresponding boxes, on which the number of the military
unit is written. Then those numbers are shown to everybody present
and are registered in the draw paper, after which the soldier
puts his signature under it. The number of the military unit is
immediately imported to the computer - in front of the name of the
soldier. “That means that it is absolutely impossible to falsify
the results of the draw and the risk is brought to the minimum. I
consider this initiative of the Minister quite important and besides
the fact that this mechanism, being a transparent one, provides
for the objectivity of the process, it should be mentioned that the
generals, who are entrusted with the implementation of the process,
are ambitious people and carry out their responsibilities quite well,
considering that the conscription process should not be a way for
some people to make money. I would like to apply to the parents of our
soldiers and the society that this significant national event should
be implemented based on the fair principles only and the pressure by
the society should be gradually reduced”, - said the Adviser to
the Minister of Defense of the Republic of Armenia Gegham Harutyunyan.
