To mark the 65th anniversary of the victory in the Great Patriotic War,
a Yerevan-Shushi auto race will take place on May 9. The race will kick
off at 9 am from Yerevan’s Victory Park, after the participants lay
wreaths to the Unknown Soldier’s Tomb and plant an apricot tree. They
will stop in Artashat, Ararat, Eghegnadzor, Vayk, Goris and Lachin
to lay flowers at the monuments.

According to Hovhannes Danileyan, the head of the initiative
group, the event will precede a Yerevan-Moscow race
(Armenia-Georgia-Belarus-Ukraine-Russia) presumably scheduled for 2011.
