While the Acting Prime Minister Ra Nikol Pashinyan speaks of the army reforms, increasing the salary of the contract service, in recent days there are massive statements about dismissal from these most servicemen, newspaper “Zhovurd” writes.
According to the report of the Armenian publication, the military complain about the absence of elementary conditions. No conditions for overnight, no food, there is no toilet. And all this in the presence of low salary and numerous loans. Power instead of solving these elementary issues only gives election promises, whereas, the army is rapidly empty.
According to the newspaper, these days already about 50 contract servicemen have submitted statements about dismissal. In order to obtain clarification, the newspaper “Zhokhovurd” talked with the commander of Horiza Horutyunyan. The latter confirmed that such statements exist.
“The process of representing demobilization reports is already 5-6 months, but it has nothing to do with the terms of service. Here is a matter of salary, family conditions, and not only contract soldiers, but also an officer. People have loans, thousands Problems, like any citizen, “he noted. The commander stressed that in any case the problem is not in the border setting.
“There are people who submitted statements, but they are waiting until the situation is discharged, because they do not want to leave their units, there are applications, perhaps their number will increase,” he added.
“that is, on the one hand promises, and on the other – the real situation,” the newspaper writes.
