12.35 While marching from one university to another, the students touched upon a recent photo discussion. There are student who are striking at the picture of Robert Abajyan, a victim of the April War. "Fake Facebook patrons say Robert Abajyan was killed and, in their words, demand some deductions, whether they were afraid of telling why Robert Abajyan remained without a bullet and exploded him. "Have those fake Facebook user patriots who say that Robert Abajyan fell, meanwhile some deserters want to get academic procrastination, ever express their concern on why Robert Abajyan did not have any bullets and had to explode himself? Why was he left without bullets? Or do they only speak about the things that are good for them?" 11.35 Entrance to the Armenian State University of Economics was banned both by a group of local students and security guards. Journalists were also banned from entering the university. One of the security guards said that he was instructed not to let them in. 10.45 It has already been the fifth day that students' protests against the new draft law on Military Service and Servicemen's Status continues. Students are struggling against the limitation of the academic procrastination, which is envisaged by a new draft law. They demand the academic procrastination to be used as before. And according to the bill, the academic procrastination will be given only if a citizen signs a contract with the Ministry of Defense, and in that case, after the study, the citizen undertakes to serve in the army not for two years, but for three years. Today students will march from YSU to other universities. The controversial bill will be put to a vote in the second reading of the four-day sittings of the National Assembly this week. To remind, on Friday afternoon the NA Standing Committee on Defense and Security approved the bill.
