VAN BAYBURDIAN DISPROVES STATEMENT OF GEORGIAN NEWSPAPER
AKHALKALAK, APRIL 8, NOYAN TAPAN - A_INFO: Georgian "Alia" newspaper
in April 5-6 issue wrote that, during RA President Robert Kocharian's
last visit to Georgia, Michael Saakashvili, the President of Georgia,
asked his Armenian partner to assist him to dissipate mood of a meeting
in Akhalkalak, in the sense of settling the situation. The newspaper
also said that the President of Armenia in return asked the President
of Georgia quickly to put in action Abkhazian part of Sochi-Yerevan
railway. Van Bayburdian, an Armenia MP to the Parliament of Georgia,
who had been present at the meeting of the two Presidents, stated
that the above-mentioned statement of the newspaper of Georgia does
not correspond to reality. The MP does not exclude that the issue
of re-putting Abkhasian railway in action might also be discussed
during private conversations, but at the same time he excludes the

in the newspaper has taken place and can take place among the two
Presidents," the Armenian MP emphasized.
