Probably 2-4 Armenian Deputies will be elected to the Georgian
Parliament, Armenian MP, President of the "Javakhk" compatriotic union
Shirak Torosyan told a press conference today. According to him, having
more Deputies in the Georgian Parliament is now different because,
according o the new law, even the majoritarian candidates should be
nominated by some party. "In these conditions people concerned about
socio-economic issues of Javakh Armenians could not present their
candidacies because no political force agreed to nominate them,"
he said.
Shirak Torosyan also turned to the recent statement of the Georgian
Envoy in Armenia, characterizing it as non-diplomatic. According to
him, not going into details, the Georgian diplomat simply urges or,
to be more exact, demands from Armenia to vote for the document
Georgia presented at the UN, in which it demands to recognize the
territorial integrity of Georgia.
However, as the MP noted, just several days ago Georgia voted for a
similar resolution presented at the UN by Azerbaijan. Shirak Torosyan
hopes that those responsible for the foreign policy of Armenia will
make correct decisions and will vote deriving from Armenia's interests.
