    ACTS OF GEORGIAN CLERGY STIR PROTEST IN ARMENIA

    AssA-Irada
    December 3, 2008 Wednesday
    Azerbaijn

    Over 2,000 Armenian students have staged an action of protest in
    Yerevan on Wednesday to voice objection to the abuse of Armenian
    churches in Georgia. The protesters, gathered outside the UN office
    in Yerevan, demanded that the illegal actions of Georgian spiritual
    leaders against Armenian churches be stopped. The protesters
    then proceeded to the Georgian Embassy and handed in a letter to
    Ambassador Revaz Gachechelidze. The letter demanded that the action
    of the Georgian clergy be stopped and an assessment be given to the
    developments. To recap, Armenian sources reported that gravestones of
    two Armenian benefactors in the Sacred Norashen Church in Tbilisi were
    desecrated on the initiative of Georgian priest Tariel Sikinchelashvili
    on 16 November.
