    Kocharyan, currently in Georgia on an official visit, met with
    representatives of the Armenian community in Tbilisi on Sunday.

    The meeting was held behind closed doors. `Robert Kocharyan is
    satisfied with results of the visit and the state of bilateral
    relations,' Van Baiburt, co-leader of the Armenian community in
    Georgia and Georgian parliament member, said after the meeting.

    `We discussed problems of the Armenian community in Georgia, which
    Armenia can help to resolve, including the delivery of textbooks for
    Armenian schools,' he noted. Bilateral trade, economic and cultural
    cooperation was discussed, as well.
