YEREVAN. – Past daily of Armenia writes: After the revolution of 2018, in July, the government made a political decision that internal police troops should be sent to the border.

Although "participating in the defense of the country" is also included in the list of issues under the "Internal Troops" law, the former authorities did not do this, on the contrary, they were used to suppress internal political issues and especially rallies.

Coming to power in 2018, Nikol Pashinyan announced that everything is changing, the police should not be a body that protects the authorities and solves internal political problems, but should serve the country and the society, and took a bold step: he personally attended the first shift of police officers with a solemn ceremony. Starting from 18 September, policemen guarded the border in 15-day shifts.

We were informed that months ago this decision was canceled; internal troops are no longer sent to the border, even soldiers are not sent from Armenia to Artsakh, but after the war, the same officers continued to perform service at the borders of Armenia from time to time. Now it's finally stopped."
