YEREVAN (YERKIR) - Speaking to Armenian reporters in Batumi,
Georgian President Mikheil Saakashvili said he works harder for
procuring food for the Georgian army from Javakhk than many locals,
Armenpress reported.
He added that beginning August 10, several procurement offices operate
in Javakhk, noting also that Georgian servicemen receive more food
on daily basis than the 3,000 soldiers of the Russian military based
stationed in Akhalkalak.
The Georgian president reiterated that the reason he has decided
to buy food for the 15,000 Georgian military personnel in Javakhk
is based on the harsh climatic conditions and dreadful roads of the
region that make it one of the poorest in Georgia.
"If the conditions in the region are not boosted artificially, it may
find itself in a very complicated state," Saakashvili indicated. He
also said a $20 mil. project to fix the region's roads will be
implemented starting this year.
