Yerevan, 26 July: The centre of the opposition United Javakhk
movement has issued a statement with regard to the deterioration of
the situation in the Armenian-populated Samtskhe-Javakheti Province
of Georgia.
The centre condemns the policy of the Armenian authorities, which is
"marked by continued disregard for the problems of Javakhk [Javakheti]
and inability to cooperate with the provincial authorities. Instead,
the Armenian authorities have always used the population of Javakhk
for their ends, including for illegal participation in Armenia's
electoral processes," the authors of the document said, according to
the statement received by Arminfo.
Instead of putting forward a clear position on the unfolding events,
"the authorities confine themselves to clumsy statements that generate
disappointment and apathy in our citizens". Being a supporter of
strategic cooperation with friendly Georgia, the movement always
emphasized deepening democratic processes in Javakhk, establishment
of NGOs and increasing the protection of human rights.
"We call on the Georgian authorities to take appropriate measures to
normalize the situation, so that the fundamental rights, freedoms and
dignity of the Javakhks do not suffer in any way," the statement by
the movement said.
