The Armenian authorities must put an end to the practice of electing members of the Armenian National Academy of Sciences (ANAS) and start reforms in the science sector, says a letter of Doctor of Physics and Mathematics Grigor Barseghyan.

“The Armenian institute of academicians is based on a number of absurdities and is actually destroying the country’s future. It is common knowledge – at least our position has never been criticized.

According to Barseghyan, the institute of academicians is nonsense – in the moral, state and scientific aspects.
