    ARMENIAN POLITICAL ANALYST: CURRENT TBILISI'S POLICY PREDETERMINES DISINTEGRATION OF GEORGIA INTO SEVERAL SMALL STATES

    Current Tbilisi's policy predetermines disintegration of Georgia
    into several small states, Armenian political analyst Hrazdan Madoyan
    said at discussion "Georgia's policy and national security" organized
    by Mitk Analytical Center on December 25. As a REGNUM correspondent
    informs, according to him, at present moment Georgia's main problem is
    that it failed to consolidate ethnic groups living in its territory
    and become a single nation, which poses the country's future under
    question. At present time, the Georgian authorities resort to the
    tried method of "divide and rule," setting Georgia's ethnic groups
    against each other.

    Under the pretext of improving living standards they started resettling
    Adzharians into the Armenian-populated Javakheti. As the authorities
    say, Adzharians were resettled from villages that were in danger
    of mudslides. Improving living conditions of Adzharians, who lived
    in the subtropical area, came to settling them into a mountain area
    with severe climate and high seismic activity. Naturally, as Madoyan
    believes, in reality the matter did not concern improving living
    standards, the true reason was an attempt to weaken both Armenians
    and Adzharians instigating an artificial conflict. Under the same
    pretext and with the same aim, Svans were resettled to the town of
    Tsalka, which again instigated ethnic discord used by Georgia. "It
    has become clear today that such policy is being pursued in order
    to expel Armenians from Javakh, and this in the long was Turkey's
    instead of Georgia's aim," Madoyan said. He reminded that Turkey
    repeatedly announced that it should settle the issue of joining
    Azerbaijan by Nagorno Karabakh and Nakhichevan and by Javakheti. To
    implement this project a decision was made to bring back Meskhetian
    Turks to Javakheti. "Today Javakh is the only obstacle that separates
    Turks of Azerbaijan and Anatolia; after Meskhetian Turks settle in
    the territory, the obstacle will be overcome and Armenia will find
    itself in an absolute blockade," he noted.

    "So, when we say we have no problems with Georgia, we, knowingly or
    not, encourage implementation of Turkish programs," Madoyan noted.
