YEREVAN. – Cultural centers in many Armenian communities are far away from being satisfactory, Armenian deputy PM, Minister of Territorial Administration Armen Gevorgyan told the journalists on Monday.

According to him, state budget allocated AMD 10 billion to the communities in February, which was mainly directed to culture. 

“The issues are not yet solved, buildings’ condition is not appropriate and there is also lack of equipment,” deputy PM said and added that the sport culture is still on high levels even in those conditions.

Armenian Minister of Culture Hasmik Poghosyan said that reconstruction projects of the theatres will be completed by the end of the year. The next project refers to the reconstruction of museums, community libraries and houses of culture.
