"The main task facing us is to create a new architectural appearance of all restored cities and settlements. Each city, the village should be distinguished by its uniqueness, and we, of course, observe historical traditions, since we have an ancient history of architecture, and Aghdam, Shusha, and other villages of Karabakh have unique examples of architecture," Isbatov said.
