The Georgian Ministry of Culture, Monuments Protection and Sports
has established a group comprised of architects, artists and other
specialists to collect the whole data about the collapsed St. Gevork
of Mughni Armenian Church.
"The most important is to find out what really happened to the church
and why it collapsed. The further steps will be determined afterwards,"
said Natia Maruchashvili, Spokesperson for the Georgian Ministry of
Culture, Monuments Protection and Sports.
St. Gevork of Mughni Armenian Church collapsed on November 19, for
which the Georgian Diocese accused the Georgian authorities.
"This church is one of the important cultural monuments of Georgia,"
Natia Maruchashvili said, adding that great attention has been paid
to the protection of cultural monuments ever since the Rose Revolution.
About 500 historical-cultural monuments have been reconstructed in
Georgia over the past five years," she said.
According to the Spokesperson of the Ministry, the reconstruction of
churches takes place phase by phase.
