She noted that the international conference “Advancing Post-Conflict Humanitarian Agenda: Sustainable development through revitalization of cultural environment” taking place in Shusha is unique and important in terms of preserving and restoring the cultural heritage in this region.

The director of the foundation also emphasized the danger of mine contamination of the liberated territories: “Mines bring death with them. So why are they allowed at all?!
