ArmInfo. Nations that lose a battle are revived, while those that give in disappear. Former Minister of Defense of the Republic of Armenia, the leader of the All-Armenian Front movement, Major General Arshak Karapetyan stated in his video message, commenting on the situation around the village of Kirants, Tavush region of Armenia.
He noted that he was informed about the order of a high-ranking serviceman to retreat from a position near the village.
"I would like to address our officer corps and remind that during our service we rely on the relevant regulations, but no one has yet managed to nullify the honor of an officer. If necessary, we are obliged to give our lives for this honor, for our country we are obliged to die when this is necessary, although we must do everything to preserve our honor and win," Karapetyan emphasized.
