    YEREVAN. - Youth Foundation of Armenia held an action on Wednesday
    near the British Embassy devoted to the return of the remnants of
    Goddess Anahit's statue from the British Museum to Armenia.

    Coordinator of Board of Trustees Karen Avagyan and Armenian Minister
    of Education and Science Armen Ashotyan handed over the message to
    return the remnants and the signatures collected by over 20,000 young
    people having joined the initiative to UK Ambassador Katherine Jane
    Leach.

    `This is a process which can lead to success, if we are consistent.
    And I assure you, we will be very consistent,' Ashotyan said.

    The Ambassador told the journalists that there is a positive response
    by the British Museum and remnants of the Goddess will be temporarily
    exhibited in Armenia.

    This can serve for deepening the Armenian-British relations and
    cooperation between the museums, the Ambassador said.
