During its April 18 session, the Armenian government decided to defer several citizens with significant achievements in the field of sport from the 2018 winter military draft for ordinary compulsory military service.

In particular, 13 football players, who are members of the U-19 football team of the Republic of Armenia and have made significant achievements in the field of sport, were deferred from ordinary compulsory military service for one year, that is, from the 2018 winter military draft until the 2019 winter military draft.

The decision was based on the fact that the final stage of the UEFA European Under-19 Championship is going to take place in Armenia in 2019.
