For the past 15 years, both Yerevan and Tbilisi have been trying
to turn the problem of Javakhk into a social issue, an Armenian
expert said.
"Whatever officials say, the problem is a political one. Armenians
are deprived of the possibility to study in their native language
and are persecuted. The Russian factor also serves as justification
of anti-Armenian policy. Moreover, absence of Georgian diaspora in
Armenia also has its role in Georgia's governmental course," Sergei
Minasyan, deputy director of Caucasus Media Institute told a news
conference in Yerevan on Monday.
For her part, Noravank Foundation expert Tamara Vardanyan emphasized
that Georgia has always pursued anti-Armenian policy.
"Armenians are not mentioned in Georgian text books," she said,
adding that the Georgian authorities have always viewed Armenians an
obstacle to consolidation of Georgian ethnos.
