“We will also have lines for bicycles and because we all are committed to the goal and target that was put in front of us by His Excellency Mr. President to transform Karabakh into green energy zone.
So, Shusha was decided to be the first city that will activate fully electric buses. They are by the way made in Ganja, in Azerbaijan, in cooperation with partners from Belarus.
