Unesco oversees plan to recover artifacts
Experts to determine extent of looting
By Alan Riding
The New York Times
PARIS: Struggling with little reliable information about the looting of the Baghdad Museum, an international group of archeologists and museum directors decided Thursday to send a fact-finding mission to Iraq to measure the damage to museums and archeological sites in the civil disorder that followed the end of open hostilities.
Meeting at the Paris headquarters of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization, the 30 experts also called on coalition forces to protect cultural sites and institutions and they backed an appeal by Unesco’s director-general, Koichiro Matsuura, for the UN Security Council to impose a temporary embargo on the acquisition of all Iraqi cultural objects.
Текст 2
Even with little information available, however, an emergency action plan is taking shape. Along with efforts to persuade coalition forces to look out for stolen art objects, Unesco has alerted both the World Customs Organization and Interpol to tighten controls on trafficking of stolen art. Matsuura has also set up a special fund to be spent only inside Iraq for the purpose of buying back stolen art
Earlier this week, Italy donated $400,000 towards protecting Iraq’s heritage and it has since raised its contribution to $1 million. Matsuura said he had also received offers of financial aid from Qatar, France, Britain and Egypt. Unesco officials said that it had so far received nothing from the United States, which last year announced it would rejoin Unesco after an 18-year absence.
