Medical students did not enter the auditorium today. They have gathered in front of the dean's office in protest of the new law that forces them to stay the first 5 years of work inside the country.
According to them, this boycott will continue. The students say that they will prepare a lawsuit against the law to then send it to the Supreme Court.
The law approved by Parliament requires students to stay for the first 5 years after graduation to serve in Albania. Students who do not stay will be free to leave provided they pay the full tuition fee for each year, which is cost-wise much higher than what they currently pay.
