Armenia’s ex-premier Hrant Bagratyan believes the issue of arming
Armenia’s borderline villages to be a controversial one.

He left the following message on his Facebook page:

“Armenia’s authorities are reportedly objecting to the idea. I would
like to cite the following idea from my army program, which I
presented at the 2013 presidential election.

“Residents of Armenia’s borderline villages need to be armed and have
to perform certain military duties on a permanent basis. They must be
paid monthly, with the salary to be raised in case of hostilities.”
