		Lying half way between Echmiadzin and Zvartnots (which was still a pagan temple at the time), Hripsimeh was literally a fortress for Christians in the wilderness.
		Following the plan of Echmiadzin (cruciform with semi-circular apses at the cardinal points, chapels on the diagonal points), the architects at Hripsimeh created a harmonious and elegant space, one of the earliest uses of placing the dome directly over the supporting walls.

		Armenia’s air communication with the rest of the world has been complicated for the past three months by mysterious shortages of fuel which aviators blame on its sole government-connected supplier.
		The grave lack of aviation kerosene at Yerevan’s Zvartnots international airports is forcing domestic and foreign airlines to make refueling stopovers or carry additional fuel on their flights to the Armenian capital.
		According to Abrahamian, each plane taking off from Zvartnots is now given one metric ton of fuel, instead of the required 13-14 tons.
