Is there a threat that the reconstruction works of the Armenian
monuments and churches will be halted following the freezing of the
Armenian-Turkish normalization process? Referring to the issue at a
press conference today, monument specialist Samvel Karapetyan answered:
no. He particularly noted that the reconstruction of the world-famous
monuments will continue since this is more of a performance for Europe.

"The reconstruction of Tigran Honetsi Church joint project is underway
with Georgians, other churches will be reconstructed as well: this is
a performance and the parts of it will continue," S. Karapetyan said.
