    Baku. Habil Suleymanzadeh - APA. Armenian photo exhibition `Art of
    Khachkar' scheduled for today at the UNESCO headquarters in Paris has
    failed.

    APA reports quoting Armenia media that the position of UNESCO
    representatives caused it. Deputy Culture Minister of Armenia,
    Armenian ambassador to France and other Armenian officials came to
    participate in the event, but they saw that the stands were not ready.
    The boards under the photos were removed. Regarding it as
    anti-Armenian action, Armenian community of France said they would
    send a protest letter to UNESCO `in connection with denial of Armenian
    cultural heritage'.

    Armenians claim that some of the gravestones called `Kachkar' once
    existed in Nakhchivan.
