PanARMENIAN.Net - On June 21, a scientific conference on the subject of "Shushi - a Cradle of Armenian Civilization", dedicated to the 15th anniversary of the town's liberation, was opened in Shushi.



Well-known scientists from Armenia and Nagorno Karabakh are participating in the conference.



The participants were welcomed by the NKR President Arkady Ghukasian.
