The recent murder of an Armenian and stabbing of two Armenians in the
Georgian town of Tsalka does not have an ethnic context, assures the
Georgian ambassador to Armenia Revaz Gachecheladzeh. He announced that
the offender had been arrested and will get a punishment. However,
the breaking of windows of the university, the courthouse, the
protest actions of Armenians were also battering, said the Georgian
ambassador. "Every year 150-200 murders are reported in Georgia. The
population of Georgia is not homogeneous, and in a number of cases the
murderer and the victim have different nationalities. But this does
not mean that all these murders were committed on an ethnic ground,"
said the Georgian ambassador.
