Director of the State Hermitage Mikhail Piotrovsky told reporters during his visit to Sevastopol.
“I don’t want to be politically correct, but I think that Chersonesos should, of course, be an object of federal subordination. This is a UNESCO site, which means a huge responsibility. The main thing is that they (UNESCO) control whether they spoil anything or do something wrong. Therefore, this responsibility - it should be a federal responsibility, because it is both money and reporting. I think that the management of the reserve agrees with me,” said Piotrovsky.
Mikhail Piotrovsky's visit to Sevastopol took place on the occasion of the return of the Hermitage to Chersonesos, which took place 23 years later. The joint activities of the two museum complexes in preserving cultural heritage go back 150 years.
