On October 11, 1992, Chairman of the Presidium of the Supreme Council of the Republic of Abkhazia Vladislav Ardzinba signed a decree on the establishment of the Ministry of Defense and the General Staff. This date is officially considered the Day of the creation of the Armed Forces of the Republic of Abkhazia - the birthday of the Abkhaz army. The decree on the creation of the Armed Forces of Abkhazia was signed in the midst of the Patriotic War. The armed forces of Abkhazia were created in combat conditions, in conditions of a real brutal war, the war for the independence of the republic.
A powerful and modern army is even today the main guarantee of the existence of an independent Abkhazian state. That is why the Abkhaz army is distinguished by its high combat capability — after all, the fate of the nation and the entire state depended and depends on it. The Armed forces of Abkhazia are subordinate to the Ministry of Defense of Abkhazia and consist of central administration bodies, land forces, air forces and naval forces. Today, the Armed Forces of the Republic of Abkhazia have great opportunities to protect the integrity and security of the state, firmly and selflessly guard its national interests. The State Committee of the Republic of Abkhazia on Repatriation congratulates on the day of the creation of the Armed Forces of the Republic of Abkhazia and wishes the Abkhaz army and the people of the Republic of Abkhazia and wish a peaceful sky over their heads.
