Yerevan (Yerkir) - Kiro Manoyan, the director of the ARF Bureau's Hay
Dat and Political Affairs Office, has said that awarding Saakashvili
a medal was merely in return to the medal that Serzh Sargsyan was
awarded in Georgia.
Manoyan told a news conference today that Saakashvili has not done
anything for Javakhk to deserve a medal. In fact, the former and the
incumbent Georgian leaderships, as well as the opposition forces in
Georgia, have been working towards changing the demographic picture
in Javakhk. Saakashvili says that the most investments in the recent
years were made in Javakhk.
They speak of constructing a new hydro power plant and a new railway
in Javakhk but they bring workers from other parts of Georgia while
there are many workers in Javakhk who need jobs.
"We should make the Georgian political elites understand that Javakhk
must be the strongest binding element in the good relations between
Armenia and Georgia, but today, it actually is the weakest part,"
Manoyan said.
As for the clashes between the protesters and the police outside the
Armenia Marriott Hotel, he said that there was a political decision to
spare Saakashvili from seeing any protester. He added that there was
no security problem and "the police could have treated people better."
