Stepanakert, 9 May: "Every Armenian must contribute to the revival of
Shushi. The revival of Shushi is a nationwide task," the president
of the Nagornyy Karabakh republic [NKR], Arkadi Ghukasyan, told
journalists during the celebration of Victory Day, the 15th anniversary
of the establishment of the NKR defence army and the liberation of
Shushi today.

Meanwhile, the Karabakh leader regretted that the NKR’s opportunities
are limited and it cannot solve all problems immediately.

"As you know that the Revival of Sushi Foundation was set up which is
led by Yerevan mayor Yervand Zakharyan. Certain measures were carried
out by the foundation," Ghukasyan added.

Asked by journalists about the forthcoming presidential election in the
NKR, Ghukasyan expressed his confidence that the people will elect the
best candidate. "I hope that the next president will continue doing
all positive things for the life in Nagornyy Karabakh and develop
all good. The next president has a lot to do for the republic,"
Ghukasyan said.
