Military acquisition plan wasn’t changed, but additional equipment was bought – PM

 11:57,

YEREVAN, JUNE 27, ARMENPRESS. The military armament acquisition plan was not changed but additional equipment was bought, Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan said on June 27.

“There’s a lot of talk alleging that the acquisition plans of armaments and military equipment were changed after I took office of prime minister. Nothing was changed, but additional, other equipment was acquired,” Pashinyan told lawmakers at the parliament select committee on the 2020 war.

He added that his administration has never rejected the military’s spending requests.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
