Dr Lukeš informed the Ambassador that preparations were proceeding according to plan. He expressed confidence that, given the unique Mongolian dinosaur fossils to be presented and the exhibition’s considerable scientific and educational value, it would become an exceptional event not only in Europe but also internationally.
