    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ The seminar titled "Military reform in Armenia:
    providing of Defense Ministry with civil personnel and introduction
    of amendments in the law On Defense" has been successfully completed,
    RA Deputy Defense Minister, lieutenant general Artur Aghabekyan said
    in Yerevan today. In his words, an action plan on the armed forces
    reform was elaborated. "We concluded that the RA Defense Ministry
    should become more civilian. To do this it's necessary to divide the
    functions of the Ministry itself and the General Staff, which is a
    military structure presently.

    Reformation of the law On Defense is a priority task for
    Armenia. Proceeding from the discussions held we can issue a new
    law that would answer the demands of the state that has chosen a
    democratic path of development," the he said.

    The general lieutenant also noted that this year Armenia will take
    part in more than 100 NATO-initiated events. Another seminar with
    participation of experts of the George C. Marshall Fund will be held
    in late 2007.
