Army is able to create restraint mechanism to hold adversary back-minister

Minister of Defense Seyran Ohanyan said that the Armenian army is powerful enough to restrain any aggression and develop the necessary mechanisms to avert large-scale offensive acts, as today he met with the Yerevan State University’s faculty and students.

“We are facing numerous challenges. The security environment is fragile enough today to take any possible turn, but the Armed Forces of the Republic of Armenia and the army are able to maintain the relative peace thanks to their combat readiness, servicemen’s fighting spirit and high moral-psychological system,” he said

The minister said he sees the military permanently demonstrate its ability to improve and fulfill its task on a sufficiently high-level.

Addressing the 2015 accomplishments in his sector, Ohanyan summed up all the achievements in a brief personal message, “Make us a proposal to discuss and arrive at a joint decision.”

He said they have managed to prohibit the use of two phrases in the military:

“The Army is the society’s mirror reflection” (given that it kind of justifies all the incidents that happen at times in the military), and “Things of the kind happen in all armies”.
