YEREVAN, JANUARY 29, NOYAN TAPAN. Armenia has always tried to have at
least bearable relations with Georgia, while Georgia comes up from
positions of force. Levon Shirinian, a Doctor of Political Science,
the Head of the Law History and Political Science Chair of Yerevan
K. Abovian State Pedagogical University, expressed such an opinion
at the January 29 press conference.
According to him, when Russia's influence in the region weakens,
with Turkey's sponsorship Georgia tries to go out to the West at the
expense of Armenia.
According to the political scientist, the recent events in Georgia, in
particular, the arrests of Grigor Minasian, the Director of Akhaltskha
Youth Center, and Sargis Hakobjanian, the Chairman of the Charles
Aznavour charity NGO, are purely pretexts for securing their goal. And
according to L. Shirinian, the Georgian authorities' goal is to create
such conditions, under which the Armenians will leave Javakhk.
According to his observation, the most convenient way to improve the
formed situation is to carry out active actions in that direction:
the Hay Dat (Armenian Cause) offices working abroad, as well as other
organizations should also involve issues of protection of Georgian
Armenians' rights in their working agendas.
In the opinion of Sergey Minasian, the Deputy Director of the Caucasian
Media Institute, Georgia's policy to Armenia is greatly affected by the
opinion formed there, according to which Armenia is Russia's partner.
