`Press has recently spread numerous reports regarding wall lining. The
wall surrounding the ancient monastery of Gandzasar allegedly belongs
to the 13th century. It should be mentioned that infamous wall was
built not in the 13th century, but in the 80s of the last century.
The wall started to collapse, therefore it was decided to face stones
like the monastery used to be lined eight centuries ago. Journalists
will have an opportunity to familiarize themselves with this wall,'
the statement reads.
The names of Russian and American journalists are kept secret, as they
can be `blacklisted' by Azerbaijan.
The journalists will visit Gandzasar, Stepanakert, Shushi, as well as
under the construction site of a Stepanakert airport.
