"Arsen Bashirovich considered my presence here to be necessary. We have brought a play of a great Russian writer Alexey Tolstoy an Eagle and Eagle-hen. We did want to visit Abkhazia because we have had cultural and human ties for a long time. That is why the assessment the audience in Sukhum will give us is very important”, the Minister of Culture of Kabardino-Balkaria said.
