    Observed

    The situation over the Georgian region of Kvemo-Kartli, where many
    Azerbaijanis live, is not distinguished from a usual one, and no
    tensions among Georgian Azerbaijanis have been observed, Namig
    Aliyev, Azerbaijani Ambassador to Georgia, exclusively told Trend,
    while commenting the information spread by Russian News Telecast
    `Vesti' of the Russian TV referring to a report made by the
    International Group for Preventing Crisis.

    Notably, the report points out that oppressing ethnic minority in
    Georgia could trigger new conflict situations on its territory. The
    Georgian Government should take serious steps to avoid such a
    development. The report also points out that there are some tensions
    in Kvemo-Kartli and Samtskhe-Djavakheti. Just the above-regions of
    Georgia are populated with hundred of thousands ethnic Azerbaijanis
    and Armenians.

    The discontent of the Armenian and Azerbaijani communities is linked
    with their insufficient representation in all the spheres of the
    social life and administrative bodies of the country. `The situation
    is bad due to the economic problems that Georgia is facing now,
    including the highest level of unemployment', the reports points out.
