YEREVAN. – Youth Foundation of Armenia held an action on Wednesday near the British Embassy devoted to the return of the remnants of Goddess Anahit’s statue from the British Museum to Armenia.

Coordinator of Board of Trustees Karen Avagyan and Armenian Minister of Education and Science Armen Ashotyan handed over the message to return the remnants and the signatures collected by over 20,000 young people having joined the initiative to UK Ambassador Katherine Jane Leach.

“This is a process which can lead to success, if we are consistent. And I assure you, we will be very consistent,” Ashotyan said.

The Ambassador told the journalists that there is a positive response by the British Museum and remnants of the Goddess will be temporarily exhibited in Armenia.

This can serve for deepening the Armenian-British relations and cooperation between the museums, the Ambassador said.
