President Robert Kocharyan received today the Director of the State
Hermitage, correspondent-member of the National Academy of Sciences of
the Russian Federation Mikhail Piotrovski.
He said it was a pleasure for him to visit his native city, where he
was born and grown up. According to Piotrovski's assessments, although
much has changed since his last visit, Yerevan has kept its face and
style and continues to remain a city of museums.
The scientist presented the current state of the Hermitage and spoke
about exposition changes.
He attached importance to the cooperation between the two countries
and noted that constant contacts, scientific conferences, exchange of
experience will provide the opportunity to organize the work more
correctly and present the Armenian culture in the best way.
Noting that the exhibition of `Treasures of St. Echmiadzin' held in
the framework of the Year of Armenia in Russia was a great success,
Mikhail Piotrovski informed that he intends to open a Urartu
exhibition hall in the Hermitage by the end of the year.
