/PanARMENIAN.Net/ We offer to establish a working group under
UNESCO patronage, in order to work out measures for protecting
Armenian cemeteries in Azerbaijan and Azeri cemeteries in Armenia,
said Chairman of the Union of Armenians in Russia, President of World
Armenian Congress and UNESCO Good Will Ambassador Ara Abrahamyan. "We
have discussed this question with UNESCO General-Director Koiitiro
Matsuura. Baku and Yerevan must agree on refusing from the practice to
destroy cultural and humanitarian values," A. Abrahamyan stressed. In
his words, currently historical monuments are being reconstructed in
former Yugoslavia. Thus, financial means are gathered for restoration
of orthodox churches and mosques in Kosovo, corresponding projects
are being worked out. "One more way to overcome conflicts is search of
points of contact. They can be various. For example, in Balkans they
could agree on introducing changes in history textbooks. We always have
to begin from something," concluded Ara Abrahamyan, ITAR-TASS reports.
