Armenian Foreign Ministry condemns desecration of statue to Mahatma Gandhi

Public Radio of Armenia







The Armenian Ministry of Foreign Affairs has strongly condemned the
damaging and burning of the pedestal of the statue of Mahatma Gandhi,
a symbol of India’s independence and statehood, peace advocate and
humanist.

This is a provocation against the centuries-old Armenian-Indian
friendship, dynamically developing since the independence, the
Ministry said in a statement.

“The issue of preserving monuments is an obligation of all of us, and
any such act of vandalism and desecration is an encroachment on the
universal values, the perpetrators of which must be held accountable
within the law,” the statement reads.
