YEREVAN. – At this phase it is too early to speak about sending military servicemen, who were wounded as a result of the Azerbaijani aggression, for treatment abroad, Minister of Health of Armenia Armen Muradyan told Armenian News-NEWS.am.

“Given that there will be a need for such treatment primarily in rehabilitation, at this phase we don’t have cases that Armenia’s resource is not enough and [the given wounded soldier] should be sent abroad,” Muradyan said. 

He recalled that the government decision, which was adopted on April 21, refers to cases where Armenia is unable to provide the given medical treatment.

“We still have no specific person who needs [such treatment],” the minister added. “There are military servicemen who will need rehabilitation treatment, but it is early to speak about it.”

At the Cabinet meeting on April 21, the Government of Armenia approved the procedure for sending military servicemen abroad for medical treatment. 

 

The respective funds will be allocated to the soldiers who were affected while carrying out their duties at the frontline.

 

Sending these military servicemen abroad, however, will be intended for cases when the necessary medical treatment cannot be provided in Armenia.

 

The respective allocations will include medical examination and treatment costs as well as travel and housing expenses.
