    GEORGIAN AUTHORITIES OPPRESS NATIONAL MINORITIES
    24/04/2005 19:00 TBILISI, April 23
    (RIA Novosti)

    Georgian authorities oppress representatives of ethnic minorities,
    announced chairman of the "Civil movement - multi-ethnic Georgia"
    Arnold Stepanyan in an interview with News-Georgia agency.

    He said that representatives of ethnic minorities often appeal to the
    "Civil movement - multi-ethnic Georgia" organization for protection of
    their rights. According to Arnold Stepanyan, there were cases when
    people were expelled from educational institutions or evicted from
    their apartments because of their ethnic roots.

    Arnold Stepanyan pointed out that one of the major goals of the
    Association that unites 56 organizations representing 18 ethnic groups
    is "the assessment of the possibility of future ethnic conflicts in
    the country and the search for ways of their settlement."
