    The historic walls of Diyarbakir (Tigranakert) could soon enter the
    UNESCO World Heritage List. A meeting was recently held with the
    attendance of officials from 15 countries to exchange information
    about what should be done, according to the Hurriyet Daily News.

    `We have to keep and restore the historic walls, and present them to
    the world history of humanity as a cultural heritage,' Food,
    Agriculture and Livestock Minister of Turkey Mehdi Eker said during a
    meeting titled `Diyarbakir Castle and Historic City ICOMOS/ICOFORT
    2013.'
