YEREVAN, APRIL 15, NOYAN TAPAN. The current events in Georgia are
the consequence of the domestic and foreign policy carried on by
the country's leadership in the past years. Haykazun Alvrtsian, the
Director of the Center for Study of Western Armenian Problems research
fund, expressed such an opinion at the April 15 press conference. He
said that besides foreign problems, Georgia also has many unsolved
domestic problems, including those of national character. According
to H. Alvrtsian, the opposition offers nothing new to solve those
problems. In his opinion, the only goal of the opposition not having
new plans, new ideology is not solving those problems, but just
carrying out a power shift, which they will hardly ever manage to do.
Therefore, according to H. Alvrtsian, the national minorities living
in Georgia, especially the Armenians of Javakhk, do not pin hopes
on a possible power shift. In his words, the problems of Georgian
Armenians will be hardly solved, as not only Georgia's authorities,
but also the whole society is disposed negatively to the Armenians.
According to historian Tamara Vardanian, the Georgian Armenians do
not take part in that movement, as the opposition forces offer no
thesis interesting the Armenians.
