The proposal of the Javakhq community to set up a monument to Armenian
General Dalibaltyan, the hero of the Artsakh war, aroused a great
complaint among the Azeris.
"Official Tbilisi will do its best to halt the negative outcome of the
statue unveiling on the Azeri-Georgian relations," Georgian Ministry
of Culture told "Trend" agency.
Under the Georgian legislation, the Self-Government Bodies are entitled
to make a decision on the erection of statues.
The Azeris' concern is also determined by the fact that there are
Armenians in the new Georgian Sakrebolo. The Georgian Minister of
Culture says that regarding the possibility of transferring the issue
to the political field they will take into account the interests of
neighbouring Azerbaijan too.
