Chairman of "Yerkrapah": There will be big changes in the near future

Arminfo, Armenia
March 5 2020

ArmInfo.The change of the Minister of Defense in Artsakh does not mean that Karen Abrahamyan was not effective in his service, just a change of personnel has taken a  place.  Chairman  of the "Yerkrapah" Union of Volunteers (YUV), MP  Sasun Mikaelyan announced on March 5 in an interview with reporters.

He noted that a good minister was replaced by a better one. Mikaelyan  noted that when Karen Abrahamyan was the NKR Minister of Defense, the  army was in very good fighting condition. According to Mikaelyan,  Jalal Harutyunyan is a very successful soldier. "And personnel  changes are inevitable, and in various areas," the MP noted.

To the question that there has been talk recently that the YUV may be  included in the Ministry of Defense of Armenia, Mikaelyan noted that  he did not want to disclose all the details of this issue. " Only  time will tell, but I believe that "Yerkrapah" should be a reserve of  the Ministry of Defense. At the first order, we will be at the  forefront. There will be big changes in the near future," the MP  said.

When asked if "Yerkrapah "is being replenished with new personnel,  Mikaelyan said: "Of course, we have new personnel. We must replenish  our ranks and support the army. Persons who have completed compulsory  military service can apply for membership. Moreover, we do not want  to interfere with the army's resources. People over 45 years old are  accepted into our ranks, today we have people who can defend their  homeland with arms in their hands.
