Army and Society
For soldiers-liberators the most difficult, the most dangerous years of war at the same time were also the happiest. They always enthusiastically remember those years, miss the war in which they won. Maybe that led them again on the battlefield.
They say there are no miracles, however, the impossible becomes possible in the Armenian doctors hands. The other day I visited the wounded soldiers in the Surgical department of the Central Clinical Hospital on permission of chief, Lieutenant Colonel Sevak Shahbazyan.
On the night of April 2 the guys of one of the north-eastern point were among the first who resisted the attack of the enemy, they were fighting under the command of Captain Armenak Urfanyan. The captain ordered his men to retreat, and he remained at the position. Only one, 19-year-old soldier Kyaram Sloyan did not obey the order.
We won because hatred, xenophobia, barbarism and atrocities are not peculiar to us. We are united by a common will of defense of the fatherland. After all, only a strong and sovereign state is the guarantor of our lives.
For me the expressions “RA Armed Forces”, “Armenian Army”, “Armenian soldiers”, “Fatherland defender” have acquired a definite meaning and content, when my brother, Vladimir Muradyan was called to the army.
From 17 to March 20, a few professors of Yerevan State University, representatives of student organizations became participants of several initiatives in Artsakh. It should be noted that this year’s visit to Artsakh was dedicated to the 50th anniversary of the post-graduate of the Journalism Department of the Faculty of Philology of YSU, liberator-soldier Norayr Marutyan and the 25th anniversary of Armenia’s independence.
