Dear Armenian people!
Messrs officers, soldiers and warriors-liberators!
Congratulations to all for a Happy New Year, I wish you health, happiness and most importantly – peace that we have defended during this year – in 2014, which was full of dangers and challenges. This past year was filled with not only unprecedented tension on the border, but also achievements in army building. Despite ongoing provocations, a large amount of work has been carried out in the areas of improving combat training and safety of alerting. Particular attention was paid to the implementation of new and more complex combat training tasks, preparation of special units.

Dear generals, officers, non-commissioned officers and soldiers, special civil servants of the Armenian Army and serving workers!
Happy New Year and Merry Christmas!
On the eve of the New Year it’s always a good reason to summarize and evaluate the work of 12 months. Our common efforts and hard work were marked by a number of outstanding successes.

Dear defenders of our Motherland!
Christmas and New Year holidays, on the one hand, are a time of joy and laughter, song and dance, and on the other hand, the period of reflection, generalization of the work done, the exam period for ourselves.
During the passing year in unequal border battles heroically died brave defenders of our homeland, inflicting also fatal blows to the enemy. Service is tempered by tests, it is a mean to cleanse the hardening of our mind and soul.

Helping hand of philanthropist Vaheh Badalyan to the families of perished this year soldiers, was a manifestation of an unprecedented cooperation and goodwill.
On December 23 Vaheh Badalyan on the board of the Union of Volunteers Yerkrapah (UVY) made a patriotic initiative, and provided with 1 million drams to the relatives of soldiers who gave their lives defending our country. V.Badalyan assured that this program will continue.

At the initiative of the NKR Defense Army Command and with the assistance of RA Ministry of Defense, in 2014 about 1500 servicemen, who manifested themselves well during the service, got a surprise vacation. In all regional centers of Armenia meetings were held with parents and the NKR AoD command. The goal of these activities is to strengthen the relationship between the army and society. A series of such events of this year was completed in the capital of Armenia.

he 100th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide is approaching. Former soldier of the Armenian army (demobilized 1 year ago) Vanand Mkrtchyan created a petition on the site Change.org, the purpose of which is to inform humanity about the Armenian Genocide. He turned to the Google company to place a doodle on the front page of its website on April 24, 2015.
For about 25 thousand people have already joined this petition, and this figure is growing rapidly.
