During the discussion of the reduction of the length of compulsory military service, an interesting indicator was presented, which did not receive much attention in the following days. This was written by Tigran Abrahamyan, Secretary of the Honor faction of the National Assembly.
“The Ministry of Defense noted that this year, approximately 16,000 people participated in the 25-day training camp, while the planned number was 20,000.
Let me remind you that 14 of these 25 days are combat duty, which partially solves the problems associated with recruitment.
Problems associated with the reduction of the length of service will become apparent in the summer of 2027, when the first 1.5-year conscription is demobilized, and numerous existing problems will be exacerbated.
The symbolic role and the whole purpose of having an army for the government is that we will not be threatened or attacked,” he wrote.
