About the omissions in the military-patriotic education in colleges

Students of Yerevan State College No.1 now are happy to participate in classes of basic military training – BMT. By immediate efforts of the Defense Minister’s Adviser, Lieutenant-General Muraz Sargsyan BMT class was renovated. In turn, the Ministry of Defense has taken care of scientific and technical equipment of the classroom.

According to Lieutenant-General Sargsyan, in some colleges BMT subject was simply ignored. Another reason – the distressed BMT classrooms, the lack of visual aids, simulators, training weapons. But in each of these colleges 400 recruits are studying!

It is necessary to condemn and eradicate the approach that “attendance at BMT lessons is not very important”.
