the initiative of maple alley plantation in the area where Russian
volunteers died in battle for liberation of Eastern Armenia together
with the Armenian mass levies during the first Russo-Persian War
(1801-1813). Volunteers from Russian Culture Organization planted 114
trees as to the number of the soldiers killed. "As a Russian man and
patriot of Armenia I am proud that Beeline supported the action. I
hope these trees will symbolize the glorious past of our predecessors,
the unity and the bright future of our fraternal peoples," says Igor
