The Sardaparat movement held a discussion at the office of the Kenats Tun cultural NGO today where the Armenian intelligentsia presented practical steps to oppose the plans of the Armenian government to open schools in the country with foreign languages as the medium of instruction. A number of options were put forward, ranging from picketing the National Assembly to writing academic papers on the issue.  The organizing group will develop a plan of action after analyzing all the proposed options and will inform the media about its decisions.  One of their first steps will be to meet with the National Assembly's Standing Committee on Education and Science to explain the dangers of opening foreign language schools in Armenia.  If the members of this committee vote against the draft law, it will not be included in the National Assembly agenda. The intelligentsia is planning to work in three areas – scientific, political and legal.  There has to be scientific basis to the claims that these schools will be harmful, and then the issue has to be given a political focus.  There are suspicions that the idea to open these schools has been pressured upon Armenia by Russia, the United States and Europe. The legal experts will try to then prove that the introduction of foreign language schools violates the Constitution of the Republic of Armenia and is also against the country's national security interests. Director Tigran Khzmalyan's opinion differed sharply from those of the others – revolution was the answer to everything.  Writer and orator Karine Khodikyan felt that the solution was a revolution in translation.  She suggested that the state should support and seriously invest in a massive translation project such that people working in any area of specialization would then be able to find literature in Armenian on any topic of their interest. One suggestion was to demand the resignation of Minister of Education and Science Armen Ashotyan.  This, however, was rejected because, in the words of the participants, "Ashotyan would be replaced with Galust Sahakyan…"
