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.
