Armenian writer and publicist Vahram Tatikyan announced on his Facebook page yesterday that he will begin a termless hunger strike at 12 pm on October 20 as sign of protest against the Yerevan City Hall’s decision to construct a dolphinarium (an aquarium of dolphins) in Komitas Park, near the Pantheon.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Vahram Tatikyan demands that the Pantheon be included in the list of Armenia’s historical and cultural monuments.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The construction of the circular tank initiated by a Ukrainian organization Nerum began in Armenia in August. The construction is carried out on land leased by the Yerevan Municipality (City Hall).<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

If plans are fulfilled, the dolphinarium – five meters deep and 18 meters radius – would house four dolphins, one sea lion and two seals.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
