Exhibition on Armenian Khachkars Will be Held in All European capitals
The exhibition devoted to the Armenian cemetery in Old Djugha (Nakhichevan) will be exhibited in all European capitals, said Armenian Foreign Minister Vartan Oskanian in Yerevan. He also added that PACE Monitoring Group on protection of cultural values will visit our region in 2007.
"Azerbaijan put forward conditions: if the group wants to visit Nakhichevan it must also visit Nagorno Karabakh, since, as Baku says, there are cultural monuments in Karabakh, which have been destroyed by the Armenians. But the neighboring country evades the fact that distractions in Nagorno Karabakh are the result of war. At the same time the distraction of the Armenian cemetery in Nakhichevan is the policy of Azeri authorities," Oskanian stressed.
