A group of citizens staged a protest outside the Armenian Education
Ministry, demanding that Minister Armen Ashotyan come down and listen
to them. They demand to review tuition fees which will be increased
in a number of universities beginning the new academic year.
A Ministry official told the protesters that Ashotyan is ready to
receive them and journalists at the Ministry, but they refused the
offer and repeated that they demand that the Education Minister come
down to talk to them.
Yesterday, a group of citizens held a protest near the government
building with the same demand. The protesters demanded a meeting with
Armenian Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan in order to hand him over a
letter stating their demands. But he did not come down to them.
