AKHALKALAK, NOVEMBER 21, NOYAN TAPAN - ARMENIANS TODAY. The "United
Javakhk" democratic alliance condemns the passive and scared posture of
Armenian mass media in the issue of covering the political problems
preceeding in Javakhk. This is said in the November 20 statement
spread by the alliance. The statement authors demand "to display civil
resoluteness, throw down the timidity unworthy for a journalist and
display boldness in the sphere of informing the society about the
struggle for the rights of Armenians of Javakhk and securing Armenians
of the region."
The demonstration of protest of the Armenians of Javakhk at the RA
Bavra border post on November 20 was actively covered by Georgian and
Russian TV companies, and "United Javakhk" characterized absence of
Armenian TV companies and other media as "an exclusive, unpardonable
and intolerable disgrace."
The "United Javakhk" democratic alliance also informs that today
at the Armenian-Georgian interstate border "about 100-person police
detachment of special meaning armed with self-firings is placed at
the Georgian authories' command to implement demonstrative control of
the demonstration participants." The alliance condemns the Georgian
authorities' "policy having no prospects to frighten the Armenians
of Javakhk with the means of threat of using fire-arms and mass
prosecutions and forewarn of possible negative consequences," is said
in the statement.
