    EXPERT OBJECTS TO YEREVAN-BATUMI MOTORWAY CONSTRUCTION

    Economic analyst Soso Tsiskarishvili thinks it is a threat to Georgia's
    strategic interests to construct motorways connecting Yerevan with
    Batumi, because if Russia decided to repeat its military aggression
    against Georgia it could thus block the southern part of Georgia in
    a few hours.

    As is known the Russian troops who left Georgian territory by
    2007 are deployed in Armenia. Tsiskarishvili says that the Georgian
    administration deliberately broadcast the shots taken in Berlin showing
    the meeting between two opposition leaders and former Interior Minister
    Targamadze to bury the news about concluding a deal with Armenia on
    the construction of the Yerevan-Batumi motorway.

    Tsiskarishvili says that two previous Presidents of Georgia,
    Gamsakhurdia and Shevardnadze, had negotiated about the possibility of
    this motorway being built but no real steps had been taken, whereas,
    according to Tsiskarishvili, during Saakashvili's Yerevan visit on
    June 26 a final decision was taken to construct this road.
