YEREVAN. – The former principal of Yerevan State Linguistic University
(YSLU) Suren Zolyan will not participate in the contest for the
principal post from which he was fired recently, Zolyan announced at a
press conference on Saturday stating that he still considers himself
the principal of YSLU.

`The development of education in Armenia is deficient – the Bologna
Principle does not work here but a feudalistic one where the minister
is always right and everybody must obey him,’ he said adding that the
issue is not the Ashotyan – Zolyan misunderstanding but the further
development of education in Armenia.

As Armenian News-NEWS.am reported earlier, Yerevan State Linguistic
University Principal Suren Zolyan was dismissed from his post recently
under the order of Armenia’s Minister of Education and Science Armen
Ashotyan.
