    on the lands where we prohibited entrance of Georgian frontier
    troops. Two days ago, RA Vice Premier convened a working discussion

    governor of Bavra village told a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter. `During the
    meeting, I was informed that Georgian Co-Chair of Armenian-Georgian
    demarcation committee was removed from post. Thereafter, the Georgian

    Armenia. Besides, in early 1990s, village inhabitants were given
    ownership certificates entitling them to use those lands as their
    property,' Sumbulyan stated.
