ArmInfo. ‘All of us should be concerned about the problem of corruption
at the higher educational universities in Armenia’, Prime Minister
Tigran Sargsyan told media Friday.

He called it very delicate issue. ‘We have a big army of honest
professors devoted to their work and we should not accuse them all of
corruption. At the same time, we are aware of the other side of the
problem. In this context, formation of civil society is of great
importance. Public should condemn this phenomenon as well as the
students and their parents who give bribes alongside with the
professors who take these bribes. It is necessary to develop public
intolerance to such idea as bribe’, the premier said.

To recall, a day before, a group of young people were walking along
Yerevan streets with photos of professors and the word ‘bribe taker’
written on them.
