/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Yerkrapah Volunteer Union administration and
verification committee members were elected during the 8th union
congress Tuesday, February 16.

Lieutenant General Manvel Grigoryan was re-elected as Yerkrapah
Volunteer Union chairman.

At the congress, statements were made by Yerkrapah Volunteer Union
chairman, Manvel Grigoryan; RA Minister of Defence, Seyran Ohanyan;
Commander of the NKR Defense Army, Movses Hakobyan; Yerkrapah Union
member, Republic party leader, Aram Sargsyan; Peoples’ Artist of
Armenia, Yervand Manaryan; former RA Deputy Minister of Defence,
Artur Aghabekyan.

"Yerkrapah Volunteer Union will always be the defender of peace
and safety in Artsakh. The organization is opposed to linking
Armenia-Turkish rapprochement to Karabakh conflict settlement issue.

Though supporting normalization of ties with Turkey, Yerkrapah Union
is opposed to betraying the memory of Armenian Genocide victims for
the benefit of reconciliation.

The Union urges Armenian nation for unity, in the hopes that tragedies
like October 27 and March 1 will never be repeated," the statement
issued at the conference said.
