"Our plan and project came true. It was implemented on a high level. I
am satisfied," told architect Artak Ghulyan Panorama.am adding that
regardless all the difficulties they had come across with during the
implementation of the project the church was constructed.
According to the architect though the construction lasted for years
changes have been made in design and decoration even yesterday.
"I tell everyone that there are two main issues that I have put on
the table; I wanted to introduce the Armenian architecture out of
the borders of Armenia and to make it so that it corresponds the
architecture of the city it is built in. I think the church will
be considered within these two aspects," the architect notes. The
construction of the church was implemented due to Armenian
philanthropists, Ruben Vardanyan, the CIB co-chair among them.
"I am happy that our dream came true at last," Ruben Vardanyan said
at the briefing with the journalists.
According to Ruben Vardabyan the fact that the church is big is
really good, but the best thing here is that the people will have the
opportunity to come together and to communicate to each other inside
the church.
"I also like the fact that our children will have the opportunity
to get acquainted to the Armenian traditions and values here," the
speaker added.
President Serzh Sargsyan and Mrs. Rita Sargsyan, together with the
president of Nagorno-Karabakh Bako Sahakyan attended the ceremony of
consecration of the Armenian Cathedral in Moscow and opening of the
Church compound. The ceremony of consecration of the Cathedral was
conducted by His Holiness Catholicos of All Armenians Garegin II.
