Graduates of Armenian military universities will receive apartments  from state

ArmInfo.Starting from the 2022-2023 academic year, graduates of military universities assigned to officer service in the Armenian Armed Forces will receive apartments from the state. On June 2, the government approved the draft amendments to the  law "On military service and the status of a serviceman."

As Minister of Defense Suren Papikyan noted, presenting the draft  decision, a cadet who entered a military educational institution  after July 1, 2022, after graduation, will be provided with a service  apartment with the right to use it free of charge.  After 20 years of  military service and retirement before the expiration of the contract  due to being declared unfit for military service for health reasons  and military disability, the officer will receive an apartment in the  property. In the event of his death in the line of duty, the  apartment will be transferred to the property of his family members  free of charge.

According to the Minister of Defense, the procedure and conditions  for providing apartments with the right to free use will be  determined by a government decision.

RA Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan, in turn, noted that an officer  admitted to the university will immediately receive an apartment and  he will be able to use it at his own discretion. "He can live in this  apartment, rent it out, but without the right of alienation,"  Pashinyan said. At the same time, as the prime minister pointed out,  admission to military universities will be slightly simplified, but  study will become more difficult for the cadet to attend the  university, and not just to get an apartment.
