ARMENIANS IN TSALKA GROW INCREASINGLY DISCONTENT WITH GEORGIAN TROOPS
TBILISI, JULY 1, ARMENPRESS: Vladimir Nazarian, an Armenian man wounded
by special Georgian troops on June 25 in Tsalka region, where the majority
of population are Armenians, is still in a Tbilisi clinic where the doctors
are fighting to save his life, a local A-Info news agency said.
The agency quoted Razmik Hanesian, the chairman of Tsalka sakrebulo (city
council) as saying that the shooting is evidence that these troops have been
redeployed here for other reasons than to keep order. Also an Armenian
member of Georgian parliament, Hayk Matevosian, was said to articulate his
discontent over the deployment. "If the unit was deployed here to respond to
emergency situations, it should deal with this, but not incite emergencies
itself,' he said, adding that firing at Nazarian was an insulting to all
Georgian Armenians and other national minorities. Nazarian was reportedly
wounded when he refused to stop his car at the order of Georgian troops.
