Everyone, to the best of their abilities, should do their utmost for the freedom of Armenia and NKR to be everlasting and independence to be permanent. We should be able to ensure development of our country. But we cannot do it without knowledge and science. We cannot ensure security of Armenia and NKR without literate defense, Armenian Defense Minister Seyran Ohanyan said at a meeting with students and lecturers of Yerevan State University (YSU). 

The Minister highlighted the importance of establishing ties between the army and educational and scientific institutions.

By joint instruction of Seyran Ohanyan and Armenian Education Minister Armen Ashotyan all military units of Armenia have been attached to 1,400 schools and the leading staff of the Ministry’s central administration has been attached to higher education institutions, according to the Defense Minister.

“YSU is one of the first structures that, at the time when our country’s security was endangered, when Artsakh was in a dangerous situation, managed to consolidate its scientific potential as well as people devoted to the country, freedom fighters. Many of teachers and students of YSU forever left their names in our history,” Mr Ohanyan concluded.
