    City of Bari is in the list of 70 Italian cities recognizing Armenian genocide

    18:22, 19 January, 2013


    YEREVAN, JANUARY 19, ARMENPRESS: Official opening and blessing
    ceremony of Armenian cross stone (khachkar) took place in famous
    southern Italian port Bari. The cross stone was made 11 years ago by
    Doctor-Professor of Architecture Ashot Grigoryan. Opening of the
    khachkar has been numerously postponed till now, when thanks to the
    efforts of the municipality of Bari and efforts of Armenians living
    there the cross stone has been installed in one of the main squares of
    Bari.

    As Armenpress was informed from the secretariat of Armenian pastoral
    of Italy, it is interesting that the cross stone has been installed at
    the same shore through which Armenians penetrated to Italy.

    Everybody were surprised when representative of Armenian Embassy in
    Italy was handed the document of the recognition of Armenian Genocide
    by Bari Mayor, according to which Bari city is among those 70 Italian
    cities recognizing Armenian Genocide.
