ArmInfo. There are no fundamental disagreements between Chief of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Armenia Artak Davtyan and  Minister of Defense David  Tonoyan. This was announced on February 18 in an interview with  reporters by Chief of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of  Armenia Artak Davtyan.

Davtyan emphasized that the Chief of the General Staff is subordinate  to the Minister of Defense. "Often, some minor disagreements on the  job are presented as serious disagreements. However, I can assure  you, in case of serious disagreements, I would resign as a  subordinate," the head of the General Staff assured. He also noted  that in everyday matters the minister always listens to advice. "I,  as the Chief of the General Staff, present my approaches that may  affect the adoption of a decision. This is quite natural, since the  Minister of Defense is responsible for making these or those  decisions," Davtyan emphasized.

The Chief of the General Staff also touched on the situation  associated with elite military units. According to the latter, they  should not be in Armenia. "The army is working to prevent the  emergence of such military units. But at the moment I would not want  to disclose the details of these works," Davtyan summed up the line.   It should be noted that in recent days information has been  circulating in the media that relations between the Chief of the  General Staff and the Minister of Defense of Armenia have aggravated.  According to media reports, they appeared in connection with the  story of a tender for the supply of Russian weapons.
