'What is the state looking at while our citizens are kept
hostages-Many Armenians have been facing a deadlock in the
Russian-Georgian frontier for more than a month. Isn't it possible to
move those in the gravest situation to an airport nearby and to
transport them to Armenia in a special flight, `A1+' receives many
e-mails like this.
What do Authorities do in fact? They just carry on telephone
negotiations. As a result of them frontier is periodically opened for
a few minutes, several cars are let out and the boundary is again
closed. No other kind of state support is provided to our citizens in
the frontier.
During the conversation with us a high state official said:
`Peopleimport cars and make profit by their business. Why should we
worry about it?â=80=9D.
