YEREVAN, DECEMBER 29, NOYAN TAPAN. The Armenian government members
headed by the president Serzh Sargsyan on December 27 went to Yerablur
military pantheon and paid a tribute of respect to the Armenians who
laid down their lives for freedom of their Fatherland.

According to the RA minister of defence Seyran Ohanian, it has become
a tradition to visit the graves of their friends on the eve of each
New Year.

"We go to the graves of our comrades-in-arms every year. By doing so,
we as if wish them a Happy New Year," S. Ohanian said.
