    Scores of citizens from Yerevan and marzes today gathered outside
    the presidential residence to protest against a legislative change
    banning persons without military service to enter the Police Academy.

    The demonstrators requested to postpone the decision arguing that it
    had affected their children's psychological stress

    The government did not take into consideration public opinion let alone
    our financial losses and money spent on the course of history, physical
    training, and Armenian history. Our children do not evade compulsory
    military service. But they should give them a chance to study in the
    academy and then serve in the army," said protester Gayane Karapetyan.

    "Let the government take the decision earlier and inform the parents
    in due time," added Nora Ghabaghyan.

    The demonstrators have handed 15 letters to different structures -
    Minister of Defense, party leaders, NA Speaker but so far they have
    received no answer.

    Today they addressed a letter to the RA President with 50 signatures.
