Armenia –
Tigran Abrahamyan, a lawmaker from the opposition Pativ Unem bloc, on Tuesday reiterated the need for major reforms in the Armenian army as the summer conscription kicked off in the county.
In a public post on Facebook, he wished all draftees safe service.
“Sweeping changes are needed in the army, which experts have been talking about for a long time,” the MP wrote.
Abrahamyan outlined four key factors for the military which “have nothing to do with funds, Azerbaijani threats or technical problems”.
“These factors include the spirit, will, idea and discipline. Without them, the army will not be able to solve problems regardless of the armaments, equipment or means acquired,” he stated.
