On March 17 Prime Minister Ara Harutiunyan held a consultation in
which Archbishop Pargev, the minister of culture Norek Gasparyan
and the scientific council of preservation of historical monuments
were present, to discuss the restoration of Amaras Monastery. It was
mentioned that restoration did not change the historical appearance
of the monastery of the 4th century in which one of the first Armenian
schools was opened. Amaras will become a spiritual and cultural center,
for which the government will provide sufficient funding.
On the proposal of Sergey Shahverdyan, member of the scientific
council, the government will prohibit allotment of land adjacent
to historical monuments until affirmation of the projects of their
restoration.
The prime minister emphasized that immense work is foreseen for
preservation and restoration of monuments, and it is necessary to
enhance the status of the scientific council. On the proposal of the
members of the council the prime minister was elected chair of the
council. The next meeting of the council will discuss the course and
perspectives of restoration of Shushi, the Department of Information
and Public Relations of the NKR government reports.
