  Vahram Mirakyan: those responsible for recent incidents in Armenian army are being identified and punishedAugust 10, 2010 - 18:33 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - Military service-related incidents occur even in major superpowers’ armies; however, foreign media does not demand the country’s Defense Minister to commit suicide, information policy expert Vahram Mirakyan stated. As he stressed at August 10 news conference in Yerevan, Azeri media is turning negative responses and generalizations of Armenian media as a weapon in its anti –Armenian propaganda. “Those responsible for recent incidents in Armenian army are being identified and punished,” the expert noted. “Possibly, military enlistment office or commanding officer are responsible for the incident. However, it’s absurd to accuse the whole institution. Resignation or suicide of Armenian Defense Minister, demanded by some Armenian media, is not a way to resolve the problem, especially given that Seyran Ohanyan is always open to suggestions,” Vahram Mirakyan stated. Vahram Mirakyan also spoke of military psychology as the developing sphere in Armenia.
