Not a trace of Armenian monuments left in Nakhichevan - ICOMOS chief

PanARMENIAN.Net - No trace of Armenian monuments has been left in Nakhichevan, ICOMOS director said, slamming Azerbaijan for having turned the churches into mosques during the Karabakh war.

“We can’t cooperate with Azeri experts, since the country withdrew its ICOMOS membership in 2003. Turkey, however, continues demolishing Armenian monuments despite joining the convention. Still, the ICOMOS membership enables Armenian experts to familiarize themselves with the plans of reconstruction of the churches despite the absence of diplomatic ties,” Garik Gyurjyan said.

According to Hague Convention, Yerevan has a right to sue Turkey and Azerbaijan for demolition of Armenian monuments.
