Defense Minister Refuses to Answer Questions on Army Dissolution and 30 Years Without a Military

Defense Minister Vagharshak Harutyunyan is in the National Assembly. He declined to answer all reporters' questions, urging them to direct their inquiries to the Ministry of Defense's press service.

"I will answer all your questions later. For now, if you have questions, address them to Altunyan," he said.

In response to journalists' questions about whether the Artsakh Defense Army has been dissolved and his opinion on a statement made by an MP from the 'My Step' faction claiming that Armenia has not had an army for 30 years, he laughed and noted that the reporter was being disruptive. Harutyunyan also left unanswered questions regarding the return of prisoners of war.
