YEREVAN, DECEMBER 23, ARMENPRESS. Winter conscription will start on December 25 in Armenia, ARMENPRESS reports the issue is included in the agenda of the December 24 Cabinet session.

Military service in Armenia is mandatory for male citizens aged 18 to 27. The service lasts two years, and conscripts are drafted twice a year pursuant to the Government's decision. Citizens aged 27 to 50 are registered in the military reserve and may be called to serve if mobilization is declared.




Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
