VARDAN OSKANYAN SPOKE AT UNESCO CONFERENCE
Support A1+!Armenian Foreign Minister Vardan Oskanyan delivered a speech at UNESCO’s 32nd General Conference.
Oskanyan attracted the conference participants’ attention to the fact of destruction of Armenian monuments in Azerbaijan, especially in Nakhichevan, once Armenians-populated area, where about 5,000 Armenian monuments dated from IX to XVI centuries had been demolished.
“Despite the fact that Armenia has repeatedly raised the issue at different international forums as well as the UNESCO decision to send experts there to estimate the damage inflicted on the site, ignoring considerable number of convincing evidence presented, Azerbaijan keeps denying all that”, the minister said.
He urged the UNESCO to dispatch experts to the destination.
