The Soldier is More Important than a Book, Our Children Were Not Chicks: Mother of a Fallen Soldier

All these killings occur under the leadership of the officers. This was stated today by the parents and relatives of soldiers who lost their lives in peaceful conditions during a protest action held near the government building. They demand a meeting with Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan, and want the Attorney General, the head of the Investigative Committee, and the Minister of Defense to be present at the meeting.

“The soldier is more important than a book, our children were not chicks to be killed. Let them not say that it was a soldier who killed another soldier,” said the mother of one of the fallen soldiers.

Deputy Speaker of the National Assembly Alen Simonian approached them, asked them not to shout, listened to their demands, and said, “I can convey this to the relevant authorities, and I will do so.”
