PROBLEMS OF JAVAKHETIA TO BE SOLVED IN TRILATERAL NEGOTIATING FORMAT:
ANDRANIK MIHRANYAN
YEREVAN, SEPTEMBER 28. ARMINFO. The problems of Armenian-populated
Samtskhe-Javakhetia region (Georgia) should be solved within the
Armenia-Georgia-Russia negotiating format, whereas bilateral
negotiations only intensify tension in the region, member of
All-Armenian Congress Board and Armenians' Union of RUssia, known
Russian political scientist Andranik Mihranyan stated at Sept 28
press-conference at Armenia's National Academy of Sciences.
In his words, both the withdrawal of Russian units from
Samtskhe-Javakhetia and the problem of Armenian people autonomy are
interrelated and have been the problem not only for Russian-Georgian
relations. He noted the necessity of Armenia's participation in the
negotiating processes. "I hope Armenian and Georgian Presidents
Robert Kocharyan and Michail Sahakashvili will agree to negotiate in
trilateral format", Mihranyan noted.
