"Dear compatriots,
Dear representatives of the armed forces,
I congratulate all of us on the occasion of the 32nd
anniversary of the formation of our army.
The Armenian Army is one of the valuable achievements of
the Republic of Armenia, one of the main guarantors of the independence and
security of the homeland.
Protection of the rights of every representative of the
armed forces is one of the primary directions of my work. In that context, I
regularly visit military units and other military institutions, meet with
servicemen with the aim of developing more effective structures aimed at
protecting their rights. Based on the
systematic problems, solution proposals are developed and they are
presented to the competent state bodies.
I would like to emphasize that the protection of human
rights and rights-based ideas are of exceptional importance from the viewpoint
of the armed forces.
I am convinced that, like any system, the armed forces
can function properly and efficiently based solely on the principle of the rule
of law.
Congratulating once again on the occasion of the holiday,
I wish the representatives of the armed forces a good and peaceful
service."
