My deputy left for the frontline alone, and we have several penitentiary officers and compulsory enforcement officers who were enlisted to go and defend the homeland. This is what Minister of Justice of Armenia Rustam Badasyan told reporters in parliament today after he was asked if he is preparing to leave for the border as well and if the Ministry of Justice is going to set up a detachment.

As far as him leaving for the frontline is concerned, Badasyan said he doesn’t have plans to leave. “If necessary, I am ready to participate in homeland defense to the extent that is necessary. There is no problem,” he added.
