An informative action this time

Support A1+!

The "We are against the reopening of foreign language schools" civil initiative held an informative action today.

The National Assembly was supposed to discuss the draft law on making changes in the RA Law on "Language", but it was postponed due to the fact that RA Minister of Education and Science Armen Ashotyan is out of the country.

"Many people don't know about this issue, but we noticed that there were hardly one or two overt supporters," initiative member Armen Hovahnnisyan told "A1+", adding that he was mainly concerned that the presses either don't provide much coverage of the issue or only present the opponents' viewpoints.

The civil initiative holds its protests silently and with a small group because, according to Armen Hovhannisyan, "the initiative must save its resources". "We stand far away from the parliament and don't have chances of direct influence."

The initiative members call on the deputies to not vote for the draft law, but the call remains unanswered.

Many MPs entering the National Assembly today avoided answering the activists' questions and said they were unaware of the issue.
