ArmInfo.And about. Armenian Defense Minister David Tonoyan found it difficult to name the dates for sending the Armenian humanitarian mission to Syria.
<I can not give specific dates for sending the mission. Now resolved issues related to logistics. This will happen either at the end of this year, or at the beginning of the next. The mission will be sent immediately after the settlement of the issue of logistics, which turned out to be more difficult than we expected, "said Tonoyan on November 12 at a meeting with journalists.
He also informed that the mission will be deployed near Aleppo.
Recall that we are talking about sending to Syria a unit consisting of about 100 military specialists - doctors, engineers and personnel to ensure their safety. Timing of dispatch depends on the completion of the preparation of the legal base for dislocation and technical assistance.
Earlier, Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan said that Armenia and Russia will soon carry out a joint humanitarian program in Syria. He added that this would be a completely humanitarian program that would not include any military component. Later it became known about sending Armenian sappers and military medics to Syria to participate in a joint humanitarian operation with Russia.
