RA Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan at the July 26 session of the government, referring to the question of the children of high-ranking officials leaving for military service, noted that the government will continue consistent work in the direction of eradicating abuses in the field of military conscription.
“There is a discussion about whether this topic is being studied. The matter is being investigated by the Police, the National Security Service and the Attorney General’s Office. This process cannot be limited to one conscription. it has nothing to do with draft dates. Unfortunately, we still have abuses in the field of conscription. It is generally surprising that in a country in such a situation there can be such abuses by officials. We will work consistently to root out all abuses. It is surprising that after so many announcements such cases continue. Let no one think that we will stop at any point for any reason,” said the Prime Minister, again declaring that there will be no compromise with corruption.
By the decisions of the government, a number of citizens with significant achievements in the fields of culture and sports received a postponement from the summer draft.
