YEREVAN, MAY 4, NOYAN TAPAN. Students of the Yerevan State University
and a number of other higher educational institutions organized an
action of protest on May 4 in front of the RA Government building,
demanding to increase quality of the educational system and decrease
corruption phenomena. A student strike was announced at the YSU on
the same day.
In the words of Karlen Khachatrian, a member of the initiative group
of the Hope (Huys) youth movement, the movement proposes a number
of mechanisms for solution of the mentioned problems. Particularly,
the number of ones entering higher educational institutions must be
defined as, in his words, the number stated during the entrance exams
does not correspond to the number of entrants.
In K. Khachatrian's words, this period of time was chosen for the
protest as it is a pre-electoral period and it is supposed that
their voice will be more audible. It was mentioned that the students
presented their demands to the RA Prime Minister in the written
form. The students will continue their action of protest in the case
of not getting solutions to the demands.
