Babis Vovos meets his Nemesis

ASHGABAT, Turkmenistan (AP) — Turkmenistan plans to build a soaring $70 million monument in the capital that will outstrip anything built during the ostentatious rule of the late dictator Saparmurat Niyazov.

The country's state newspaper reported Monday that the 607-foot monument will rise twice as high as Turkmenistan's current record-holder — a tower topped by a golden statue of Niyazov that rotates to face the sun.

Authorities recently announced that Niyazov's statue will be moved from the central city to the suburbs.
