    OVER 2 MLN PEOPLE TO VISIT "HOLY ARMENIA"

    The treasures of Armenian art are exhibited in Louver.

    Over 2 million people will see the exposition, Vigen Sargsyan, Advisor
    of President of Armenia, said at the press conference today. "Holy
    Armenia" exhibition will be opened on 19 Feb. V. Sargsyan said that
    it would be a unique exhibition. "It is the first time that Armenia's
    Government decided to take cross-stones and original Armenian
    manuscripts outside the country," he pointed out. Rosgosstrakh Company
    - an official partner of the "Year of Armenia to France", insured all
    pieces of art.

    V. Sargsyan said that that there are no reasons for excitement of
    Armenian prominent cultural workers who are against transportation of
    the works of art to France. "Every manuscript was placed in a special
    safe providing security of the manuscripts even in case of air crash,"
    he assured.

    7 flight were made by Armavia Air Company to transport the
    exposition. It includes over 200 unique pieces of Christian art, dated
    4-5 c. AD, - provided by treasures of the Holy Echmiadzin, the Museum
    of Armenia and Matenadaran (manuscript museum).
