    BATUMI, SEPTEMBER 5, NOYAN TAPAN - ARMENIANS TODAY. Hrach Silvanian,
    the Ambassador of Armenia to Georgia, who visited Ajaria to participate
    in the solemn event to take place on the occasion of a stop of the
    "Cilicia" sailing vessel in the port of the city of Batumi, had a
    meeting with Levan Varshalomidze, the Prime Minister of Ajaria.

    The Prime Minister stated that this year the Autonomous Republic of
    Ajaria received 35 thousand Armenian tourists and it is expected
    that their number will surpass 45 thousand in late September. It

    necessity. The RA Ambassador stated that this problem is discussed
    at the RA Foreign Ministry and will get a positive solution in future.

    As Noyan Tapan was informed by the RA Foreign Ministry's Press and
    Information Department, the Ajarian Prime Minister attached importance
    to Armenian partners' involvement in the inner market of Ajaria,
    taking into account Armenian businessmen's rich experience in the
    sphere of procession and production of agricultural products. The
    sides agreed that it's necessary to assist widening and development
    of bilateral cooperation, working out new ways of mutually beneficial
    contacts. Levan Varshalomidze mentioned on this occasion that an
    active cooperation is already being implemented between Armenia and
    Ajaria in the sphere of tourism.

    The Prime Minister touched upon the issues of fencing the Batumi
    Armenian church and restoring the territories near the church which
    were discussed during the Ambassador's previous conversation. Levan
    Varshalomidze mentioned that the Batumi Mayor will get a corresponding
    instruction to solve the mentioned problems. He also fixed that
    problems of the Armenian community will always be in the center
    of attention.
