On June 4, the Armenian parliament held a discussion on a bill on making amendments to the RA Law on Language. In the meantime, a group of people staged a protest action outside the parliament building demanding the resignation of the minister of education and science.

"It is not time to get astonished; it is time to get angered," President of the Information Technology Foundation Garegik Chukaszyan told A1+.

The latter suggests teaching Old Armenian (Grabar) at school.

"Today children are cut off their roots. The mentality of the Soviet school is still perceived in Armenia," says Mr. Chukaszyan.

Minister of Education and Science Armen Ashotyan earlier noted that the state would not finance the 15 foreign schools to be opened in Armenia.
