200 graduating students of the Military Institute after Vazgen Sargsyan received their degrees today. On the decree by Armenian Defence Minister, they also acquired the rank of a lieutenant. The students are the 8-th Military Institute graduates. On the whole, about 1000 students have graduated from the Institute.

Defence Minister Serj Sargsyan doesn't agree to the stereotyped and bad standpoint on Army. He thinks it must not be generally accepted now as the number of crimes in Army reduced 3 times and the accidents with lethal outcomes reduced 5 times .

Defence Minister Serj Sargsyan confirmed that NATO military exercises will take place in Armenia in 2003. He said it may be that Turkish sub-units participate in the exercises.
