Aravot.am asked the Minister of Sciences and Education Armen Ashotyan to comment on NA PAP MP Gurgen Arsenyan’s statement to grant tax and customs privileges to Dilijan school saying that he, principally, is not against implementation of a curriculum or any school in the country, he is just against doing a favor at the expense of the country. G. Arsenyan also said that the authorities cover their lack of talent by providing privileges to this-or-that project, while someone’s bringing money to Armenia is not a favor at all. “I do not wish to comment on the opinions with which I disagree,” said MSE Minister. A short while later, he added, “The opening of this school is the greatest contribution to education throughout the years of independence. And, I looking forward to when it will start working. Of course, it will not be a panacea, and no one has any messianic expectations, but we need to have such a school in the region.”
