RA Academy of Sciences' Institute of Oriental Studies Ruben Safrastian.
"It's not a secret that our neighbor Azerbaijan does everything to
ascribe the cultural heritage of Caucasian Albania to it, which, is,
in its turn, an encroachment upon the history of the Armenian people",

Constantine Zimmermann, Georgian famous medievalist Zaza Aleksidze,
also specialists from Dagestan and Russia will participate in the
