YEREVAN, January 16. /ARKA/. The public administration system should be consolidated around the armed forces, Armenian president Serzh Sargsyan said at an extended meeting of Armenian ministry of defence. Representatives of legislative, executive and judicial authorities participated in the meeting.
According to the president, Armenia managed to transfer from military formations to a regular army, and the new objective is to consolidate all public management around the armed forces.
“While strictly following the democratic principle of civil control over the armed forces, we should, within the bounds of the law, consolidate the special role that army has in our state,” the Commander-in-Chief said.
In case of any serious security threat all security, defence and law enforcement agencies, including the police, rescue services, their civil divisions and others should be able to give a consolidated response, have comparable procedures and complementary technical facilities, the president said.
Sargsyan said that natural links between the army and the society should be facilitated, particularly to supply the army with the newest scientific developments. Apart from this, military students should be allowed to enter civil higher schools, and vice versa.
The first priority is to provide the armed forces with modern arms and equipment.
