almost in all the post-Soviet countries more or less authoritarian regimes have been established, since there are no democratic traditions. Georgia (if we exclude Baltic states) during Michael Sahakashvili’s reign got the role of a leader in case of development. It appeared that Georgia has become the stronghold of democracy, got huge resources.

In his New Year Message the Minister mentions that the Armenian is a peaceful, generous man, and it is essential to identify these qualities at home, in the school, universities, in the army and struggle against street perverse morals.

Armenian nation entered the war fully, with its mind, destiny, some of them – with their body and blood. Soldiers’ flow to the borders was without coercion. They were teachers and drivers, city and village people, having very different mentality, who sometimes didn’t understand each other but showed bright examples of bravery.
