/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Turkey’s Chief EU Negotiator, Egemen Bagis said
the reconstruction of the Armenian Church on Akhtamar island will be
accomplished before Serzh Sargsyan’s arrival in Turkey.
"We will finish the reconstruction before the Armenian President’s
arrival and inaugurate a cross on the Church," Bagis said. "All
religions are respected. If Europe puts no bans on opening mosques,
so why should we do so? Besides, this church will attract Armenians
here, what will help develop tourism."
