It’s almost a year Armenia’s police forces carry out combat duty in the Armenian-Azerbaijani border, maintaining the security of the Armenian citizens. On this day I first of all want to thank the Police Troops, those who dedicated themselves to the defense of the borders of the homeland. I also want to thank the family members of servicemen who supported the police officers departing to serve in the border. The decision to include the Police forces in the defense of Armenia’s external borders reflects our visions on external and domestic security”, Pashinyan said.

After this, a group of servicemen of the Police Troops have been awarded by the PM, the defense minister and the Police Chief.
