"These individuals do not seek to engage in dialogue or improve education," the President said in a statement. He emphasized that the government would not tolerate such conduct in the public sphere.
Legal response follows assault
Following the incident, the government announced it has filed a criminal complaint against the agitators. The President stated clearly that "these acts will not go unpunished," signaling a firm stance against the disruption.
