RA Defense Minister Seyran Ohanyan on Augast 6 met with republican mass media representatives in the administrative complex of RA MoD.
Some excerpts from the meeting.

These days warriors-liberators of NKR Hadrout, Martakert, Berdzor regions have formed volunteer groups and left for the front line to inspire, give moral support to the soldier, to be useful with their experience and advice.

I’ve heard many stories about service in the army and I know – life on the border is not so peaceful. I know that soldiers start their day on the border with prayer and end it also with it. I know that pressed to their breasts weapons at any time can fire. I haven’t served yet but I’m already mentally ready for it.

We, Council of “Midia-Shangal” national NGO, its members and living in Armenia Yezids, express our condolences to relatives of the soldiers who sacrificed their lives in the heroic battles of the last days with Azeri subversive groups and bow to their graves. Thank God, our army successfully completed the tasks put before, and our glorious soldiers showed examples of devotion and loyalty, courage and bravery!

These days, when the enemy made several attempts to subversive activities and was severely punished, our nation – from Armenia and Diaspora – with their encouraging words stood as solid wall for the support of Armenian officers and soldiers. With this they showed – the army and the people are united. The best proof of this was unprecedented number of the visits to our Facebook page: 145 thousand visits, 856 comments.
