The fact that Armenia attaches more significance to the development of defense industry and modernization of military equipment is logical and conforms to security norms, expert Tevan Poghosyan told NEWS.am, commenting on today’s sitting at the Defense Ministry.

“Armenia should constantly review its military strategy, modernize equipment and develop defense industry within the framework of its partnership with NATO and ongoing regional developments,” he noted. He also stressed that Armenia should cooperate with both CSTO and NATO in the course of modernization of its military potential which is presently carried out.

Modernization of military technology and development of the Armenian defense industry was on the agenda of today’s sitting of the interdepartmental commission coordinating the review of the Defense Strategy.
