The decision of the Georgian Government to renounce Russian gas
and to import the Azeri one will not hinder the transportation of
the Russian gas to Armenia, thinks leader of the United Labor Party
Gourgen Arsenyan.
"It is the right and problem of the Georgian Government. As for
the transit gas pipeline, the Georgian Government has to follow the
international agreements it has signed. There is also a Sea Convention
which says that if several countries do not have direct outlet to
the sea, their neighbors have to provide them with that possibility".
According to Mr. Arsenyan, it is another issue whether the gas pipeline
passing through Georgia is secure enough or not. "When it comes to
security, the corresponding bodies of Armenia are not authorized to
do anything in the territory of Georgia", said Gourgen Arsenyan.
