Many centuries Armenian nation and the Armenian church have fought to protect our unique spiritual and cultural heritage. We respected also spiritual and cultural uniqueness of the neighboring nations.
However there are sects which pose a danger. There are also some anti-religious organizations, social groups which pose a danger. Emo, Gots, satanists, anti-christs belong to those organizations. Majority of them pose a danger when their representatives serve in the army, since for them life is not worth. The culmination of their ideology is suicide.

If you have many weapons, yet that is not the guarantee of effective war conduct. From 180 planes which possesses Azerbaijan, today only 80 are in a valid state, the rest is scrap-metal.

I’d say one thing precisely and unquestioningly – today our army is ready to defend Homeland’s borders and protect our nation’s security.
