On June 28, 1993 Martakert was liberated being controlled by the foe
for a year. On the 13th anniversary people who come from Martakert
will arrive to take part in the celebration. Most of them are quite
successful scientists, politicians, businessmen, but few of them have
contributed to the reconstruction of Martakert.
The atmosphere in the town is interesting. Some ruined buildings,
with new metal and plastic windows, were turned into beauty parlors,
the windows of other buildings are covered with blue cellophane that
the Red Cross distributed to returning natives of Martakert. One can
see a Jeep and an old Moskvich loaded with hay in the street.
Water is a serious problem in Martakert, although the big rivers
of Karabakh flow via this region. Roads are bad, there is shortage
of water, what business can there be? They only sow wheat, but the
yield is low. On the other hand, the two largest companies of NKR are
"based" in Martakert, the mines and copper factory in Drmbon and the
woodworking factory of Vank. It is interesting that both factories
were built after the war.
The telethon of the Armenian Foundation held last year was devoted to
the reconstruction of Martakert. Although, we have learned that work
on the raised funds has not started yet. Well, we are not being late.
