Armenian action in Tbilisi
Peaceful procession was held in Tbilisi in March 3, 2005 with the
participation of Georgian and Armenian Youth representatives.
The action was organized by Association of Armenians -`Nor Serund' and NCYOG
(National Council of Youth Organizations of Georgia).
The Union of Armenian Youth of Georgia and Armenian Cooperation Centre of
Georgia also took part in this action. The main cause of the action was the
raised excitement around the Armenian Church Norashen.
By this procession the youth showed its unity and the fact that there is no
problem between them, in spite of the existed moot point between Georgian
and Armenian churches. The participants of the action called the churches to
enter into negotiation for solving the existed problem. The procession was
held in the district of the old Tbilisi. The youth gathered at the Cathedral
Sioni, lit candles, then the procession moved towards the church Nor Ashen.
The procession ended in the Armenian church St.Gevorg, where the youth was
met by the representatives of Armenian Apostolic Eparchy in Georgia. Father
Abgar in his speech expressed his hope in quick solving of the problem, and
blessed the participants of the action.
Georgian mass media vividly covered this action.
