The Ambassador noted that the picture has its special place among the 100 exhibits. “There is a very famour photo, which was made by a young man, a talented Armenian photographer Davit Hakobyan, for which he received several awards. We have prepared another congratulation for the photographer. Unfortunately he isn’t here with us now, but fortunately he is in Astana,” Uruzayev said.
