Ara Haroutyunyan noted that they will try to find common grounds
for cooperation between both the two Armenian republics and between
concrete provinces and regions not only in the spheres of culture,
education and sport, but in the sphere of economy as well.
The regional governor of Lori noted that they often paid private
visits to Artsakh, but in the last two days they made out much more
for themselves.

Artsakh for the Armenian people.

and meetings will have a continual character and we all shall be
the witnesses of the results of this cooperation",- the NKR Prime
Minister noted.
After the conference the RA delegation departed for Shoushi and
visited the Church of Ghazanchetsots. From Shoushi the delegation
left for Yerevan.
