YEREVAN, FEBRUARY 19, ARMENPRESS. The Armenian government is discussing the introduction of a comprehensive security and defense system, Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan has said.
“In addition to the armed forces system, we also have the militia system, which must further develop and become a part of our territorial defense system. It contains components, and according to components we are aiming for our population to have some involvement in the protection of territories. In this sense, we are cooperating with certain organizations. But we should also draw conclusions from these events,” Pashinyan said during his meeting with the Armenian community in Germany where he was on a visit for the Munich Security Conference when asked on the latest Azeri cross-border shooting in Syunik province which left 4 Armenian troops dead and another wounded.
“We are now discussing the comprehensive security and defense system, which has a goal to involve a maximally broad circle of people in the participation of the country’s security. The problem here isn’t the age, I think we must work in order for military discipline and logic to be unquestionable,” the PM said.
