YEREVAN, SEPTEMBER 1, ARMENPRESS: In connection with the Day of
Science and the first day of 2009-2010 academic year the Armenian
Defense Minister Seyran Ohanian visited #125 secondary school after
poet, victim of the Great Armenian Genocide Smbat Byurat and held a
lesson of bravery for the pupils.
Greeting the pupils the RA Defense Minister congratulated them in
connection with the Day of Science wishing the young generation be
educated, brought up with patriotism and be devoted to his/her country
and nation.
"To the happiness of our freedom longing people we could gain our
independence, liberate Nagorno Karabakh in virtue of the heroes of the
Armenian nation. You have statehood and must preserve the greatest
asset and kick back all the hazards threatening our state," said
S. Ohanian applying to the pupils. According to him, since 1988 the
Armenian nation has shown unity and in cruel conditions was able to
win the war which was forced on us. The DM said that we are unitary
only in the conditions of danger but we must also preserve this in
the conditions of peace to be able to achieve our goals and protect
the Armenian statehood.
"Regular warlike threats of Azerbaijan and the military hysteria
related to the filling up of the armed forces must not concern us. In
1992 they overwhelmed us in quantity and military techniques but
the Armenian people exerted all its military abilities and achieved
a historical victory. You must take an example from our heroes and
never be afraid of difficulties," said S. Ohanian adding that the
21st century is going to be ours.
The Defense Minister presented the schoolchildren with the "Army
of the 21st Century" book written by him which is dedicated to the
Defense Army of Artsakh.
The top-guest walked round the classrooms, visited the auditorium of
military science getting acquainted with the conditions. S. Ohanian
promised to establish a shooting-ground in the school.
