Many young people admitted to foreign universities are unable to leave Armenia to study abroad due to the closed borders, Naira Zohrabyan, a lawmaker from the opposition Prosperous Armenia Party, said in a Facebook post on Wednesday.

"I applied in writing to the prime minister to get clarifications on the issue, today I received a response from the minister of education, science, culture and sport,” she wrote.

Zohrabyan also shared the minister’s response on her page so that the students admitted to foreign universities who applied to her are aware of it.
