Minister of Labor and Social Affairs and member of the ruling Civil Contract Party Arsen Torosyan stated that he sees no purpose in Armenia making a public issue of the reported demolition of a church in Stepanakert.

“Let’s say we did it – what would it give to Armenia and the citizens of Armenia?” he said during an appearance on Public Television.

According to him, raising such issues could risk reviving the Karabakh movement.

“They are doing something on their sovereign territory,” Torosyan noted.

He said that UNESCO can raise this issue, but Armenia cannot.
