Lieutenant General Artur Agabekyan, Deputy Defense Minister of
Armenia, reports that his country plans to accomplish a reform of
the national armed forces in 2015. Agabekyan adds, "Between 2007 and
2008, we plan to reform the legislative base and in 2008 we will also
start development of the defense doctrine of Armenia." According to
Agabekyan, for this purpose the ministry organized two commissions.
He stresses that reforming the armed forces will impact all aspects of
military buildup including the legislative base and democratization
of the army through implementation of a larger quantity of civilians
into the army command.
