    A new monument devoted to the earthquake victims of Gyumri city
    destroyed in 1988 will be established in a central street in
    Gyumri. According to media the initiative to establish a monument
    is made by a Russian industrial union leaded by Nikolay Rizhkov,
    coordinator of Armenian NA relations.

    On the top of the monument the composition presents Mother Armenia
    embracing her two little children. In the bottom of the monument
    message of gratitude will be written: "The monument is established
    in 7 May 2008 by national means by the initiative and support of N.

    I. Rizhkov." Round the monument six obelisks will be established
    giving information about the earthquake, victims and reconstruction
    activities.

    The monument will be transferred to Hyrumri by airplane. The Ministry
    of Defense will support in the transformation process. The official
    opening ceremony of the monument is scheduled on 7 December.
