Gagik Tsarukyan is a great philanthropist and has repeatedly proved this by his deeds. I think any armenian should be proud that a monument of Jesus Christ has been erected on his territory. In the future, I am sure that there will be infrastructure-restaurants, cafes, etc., for a decent organization of people's recreation. In a word, it will be a building that improves the homeland, as well as a stimulating factor for visiting foreign tourists. Of course, this is of particular importance for our country, for our nation. As a nation that adopted Christianity, we should have a statue of Jesus Christ. I remember when the Pope arrived in Armenia, he said that a visit to the first Christian country was of particular importance to him. So, regarding Gagik Tsarukyan's charitable initiative, I have only a positive opinion. It can't be otherwise.
I bless and welcome Gagik Tsarukyan's initiative to improve the motherland. Thanks to his efforts, we will be able to see Christ visually. He is a man of action, no matter what he says, he does. We have seen how Mr. Tsarukyan built many churches. He was constantly on the spot, got acquainted with the progress of construction work, always with a smile on his face, always happy. Because he is doing a good deed, because he is a great patriot. And those who are against the installation of a monumental statue of Christ, they just have a misconception about the Christian faith. The statue will not become an object of worship, as they think. We have icons in our church, but we see a completely different meaning in them. So many thanks to Mr. Tsarukyan.
