YEREVAN, DECEMBER 3, NOYAN TAPAN. Problems of preserving Armenian
historic and cultural monuments in Georgia, repairs of schools in
Javakhk, teaching the history of Armenian church at schools, and
training of teachers were discussed at the November 2 meeting of the
RA Minister of Diaspora Hranush Hakobian with the head of Georgia's
Armenian diocese Bishop Vazgen Mirzakhanian and the diocesan vicar
of Samtskhe-Javakhk Father Babken Salbiyan.
The representatives of Georgia's Armenian diocese presented some facts
related to the current state of the Armenian minority in Georgia,
laying stress on the churches expropriated in the Soviet time, in
particular, an encroachment on St. Norashen Church in Tbilisi.
Expressing her concern about the current situation, H. Hakoian said
that she hoped that Georgian authorities would undertake all possible
measures to prevent illegalities.
As NT was informed by the Press and PR Department of the Ministry of
Diaspora, on the same day H. Hakobian received the Lebanese ambassador
to Armenia Jebrail Zhaara. The ambassador spoke about Lebanon's
experience in reptriation, attaching importance to creation of the
necessary socioeconomic conditions in the country for successful
repatriation.
