    ARMENIANS ARE NOT THE FIFTH COLUMN

    Georgian Member of Parliament Van Bayburd assessed the talks that
    Turkish forces will be deployed in Javakheti after the pull-out
    of the Russian military installations as fantastic. "First of all,
    the interests of the Georgian state, secondly, Georgia takes into
    account and honors the interests of neighboring Armenia," said Van
    Bayburd. According to him, economic cooperation between Georgia and
    Turkey is not a reason to draw such conclusions. "I am fully convinced
    that there will come a time when Turkey and Armenia will have normal
    relations. The question of the genocide cannot be ignored, however, for
    it is an essential component of the ethnic consciousness of Armenia,"
    stated Van Bayburd.

    "If Russia had been reluctant to withdraw from the region, it would
    not have signed the documents of the summit in Istanbul. Russia should
    not have called the locals Armenians to defend it. Why should they
    think in Georgia that the Armenians are the country's fifth column,"
    said Van Bayburd.
