Justice Minister sheds light on future Interior MinistryJuly 12, 2022 - 15:43 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - The establishment of a Ministry of Internal Affairs is a very important and big step for the law enforcement system of Armenia, Minister of Justice Karen Andreasyan said Monday, July 12, Pastinfo reports. "I am not at all belittling the entire path that our respected police, the ministries of internal affairs have gone through. I just want to emphasize that that there is a completely new approach, where the police does not simply change its name and become the Ministry of Internal Affairs," Andreasyan told lawmakers. "Of course, the police will maintain its very important role, but the police will be the heart, an important part of the civil structure of a political administration, which will be the Ministry of Internal Affairs." Andreasyan said the Ministry will not be created from scratch, but rather be built on the Ministry of Emergency Situations. "The whole secrecy of the work of these months was to propose a model that would not impose additional costs, an additional burden on the state, so that a new structure is not assembled from scratch, but the great potential of the police is combined with one of the existing political bodies," said Andreasyan.
