Armenian Deputy Foreign Minister Gegham Gharibjanyan expressed his
hope that soon the Armenian nationals will be able to cross Ergnety
checkpoint which has been idle for some time but hopefully will help
Armenians to get to their motherland since Verin Lars check point is
closed. Gharibjanyan informed reporters that Zurab Noghaideli, Georgian
prime minister, has arrived in Tbilisi early today. He has a memorandum
from the Armenian government waiting on his table. The memorandum
asks the Georgian authorities to permit the Armenian nationals to
cross the border. Gharibjanyan assured that the checkpoint near
Ergneti residential area is dysfunctional but he hoped that Georgian
authorities would use the idle checkpoint to enable Armenians to
come to Armenia through Georgia. Gharibjanyan said Georgian foreign
ministry has already approved the memorandum from the Armenian
government. The deputy minister assured that the problem is between
Russian and Georgian authorities. He advised Armenian nationals to
use Novorosisk-Poty port while coming from Russia. /Panorama.am/
