YEREVAN, JANUARY 26. ARMINFO. The Russian Embassy in Armenia is

scientific-historical conferences, archive exhibitions, university and
school contests on the subject.
The Embassy is convinced that the celebrations will contribute to the
further strengthening of the Armenian-Russian friendship. The

world especially now that humanity is facing new threats and
challenges. On the initiative of Russia and the CIs countries the UN
