SHOULD ARMENIAN-GEORGIAN ARMED CLASHES START IN JAVAKHQ ARMENIA WILL
HAVE TO INTERFERE: SAMVEL BABAYAN
Yerevan, December 15. ArmInfo. Of course, we all would like the
problems of Javakhq and Nakhichevan to be also solved along with the
problem of Nagorno-Karabakh, says the leader of the Dashink party, ex
commander of the Nagorno-Karabakh Defence Army Samvel Babayan.
Javakhq is very important for the Armeian statehood, it is a zone of
interest for the Armenian nation. But in 1988-1994 the Armenia nation
had no right to raise this problems too as it would mean a war with
Georgia and the blockade of Armenian also from the north. Armenia
would be quickly exhausted and might even lose its own statehood.
To raise the Karabakh problem was also dangerous venture. At that time
Armenia had no regular army, was ridden by devastating quake in 1988
and had no efficient economy. It was a great risk but we won due to
right tactics, says Babayan.
He notes that today the Georgian authorities are openly
anti-Armenian. And now much depends on Armenia's policy in the
matter. The position of the present Armenian authoirities is not right
as it is contrary to the interests of the Armenian nation. They do not
realize the importance of Javakhq and treat it as a step-child. This
is not right.
Babayan notes that should Armenian-Georgian armed clashes start in
Javakheti, Armenia will be forced to interfere.
