YEREVAN. – Congratulating Mr. Ghazaryan on his appointment as Chief of Police, I would like to say that the first task I consider is his transferring of that energy, giving a new impetus to the police in terms of fighting the pandemic. Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan stated this Tuesday while introducing the newly appointed Chief of Police, Vahe Ghazaryan, to the staff of the Police of Armenia.

"The police officer, the police uniform, must create a sense of respect by every citizen, they must have very vigilant meaning. On the other hand, when seeing a police officer, the citizen of the Republic of Armenia must feel protected and perceive him as his own,” Pashinyan said, in particular.

He stressed that every police officer should perceive himself as a representative of the Prime Minister, who communicates with the people and citizens. "I am convinced that we have enough will to pursue this issue to the end," he added, above all.

According to the Prime Minister, he had a task to make the power structures in Armenia stable. "All police officers have been given that chance: to position themselves in new Armenia, new values, and new goals. Now it is time to sum up who used that opportunity, and how," Pashinyan added.
