More Misinformation from Ter-Petrossian’s Team?
Mediamax reports that the Ministry of Defense of the Republic of Armenia has issued a statement refuting Levon Ter-Petrossian’s claims to have the support of key members of the country’s military. The statement says that the defense minister and his deputies have requested that Ter-Petrossian “not […] use our names and not to make provocative statements, which do not correspond to the reality.””
As the statement of the Defense Ministry’s leadership, which was received by Mediamax, reads, “we urge the political figures to refrain from involving the Armed Forces into political processes”.
“We assure the citizens of the Republic of Armenia that the Armed Forces will not be involved in internal political processes, will act within the framework of law and will provide the security of our Homeland, solving the tasks, set for them by the Supreme Commander-in-Chief”, the statement reads.
By another statement, the Armenian Defense Ministry’s leadership congratulated Prime Minister Serzh Sarkisian on being elected for the position of the President.
