"Armenia must do its utmost to facilitate the tension existing between
the Russian-Georgian relations. All Armenians must unite and announce
that they are adherents of stability and their support neither side.
This is driven from our natural interests and is necessary for
Javakhq and Armenia", claims Shirak Torosyan, head of "Javakhq"
Patriotic Union.
The tension between the Russian-Georgian relations has its negative
outcome on the Armenian residents of Javakhq. After the cessation
of transportation and postal relations between Russia and Georgia,
a lot of Javakhq residents who left for Russia in search of proper
work conditions, are unable to return to their homes. It is already a
few days Sedrak Berikyan and his father (residents of Bavra village,
Akhalqalaq region) have been unable to send money to their people at
home. "It is impossible", say the bank clerks each time they turn to
them with the same request.
The Moscow-Tbilisi flights have been stopped. The terms Berikyans'
visas will soon expire and they might be "deported" lest they leave
Moscow in time. They can seize their last opportunity to get home
via Armenia.
Another problem Javakhq faces today is connecting with Armenians living
in the territory. The point is that Armenians of Javakhq abandon the
territory. "If this situation lasts for a long time all the Javakhq
residents will strive to get Armenian or Russian citizenship even at
the cost of their last property.
In this case Javakkq will gradually become deprived of Armenians and
the Armenian lands will be given to the local self-government bodies,"
urges Shirak Torosyan.
The main reason Armeni³ns abandon Javakhq is conditioned by
social-economic problems. The main source of the residents' income
is the oversea work.
In this respect, Shirak Torosyan, claims that Armenians face a dilemma
as in case they support this or that conflicting side, they will
appear in economic and geopolitical blockade.
