/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Teacher of Penza Art school Alexander Khachaturyan
intends to award Dmitry Medvedev, Vladimir Putin and Vasily Bochkarev
(governor of Penza region) with medals "For Generosity", "Komsomolskaya
Pravda" reports.
Khachaturyan designed the medals on his own. One side of the decoration
represents the profile of Nickolay Seliverstov, Governor of Penza
region in 1867-1872, and the other side bears the inscription "For
Generosity". The preparation of each medal will cost 3-4 thousand
Russian Rubles.
As noted by the sculptor, Nickolay Seliverstov "didn’t spare means
for developing art in the town". Khachaturyan expressed hope that
President, Prime Minister and current Governor would follow his
example."
Mr. Medvedev and Mr. Putin are to visit Penza early in June. They
will be present at the opening of student sports contest.
