/PanARMENIAN.Net/ A key issue demanding Armenian authorities'
rapid and effective response is Javahk problem. However, Armenia's
policy in that regard remains on the level of comity. Such approach
may cause Armenians to quit their historical homeland, Head of
National Neo-conservative movement Edward Abrahamyan reported to
PanARMENIAN.Net. "Given that nature abhors a vacuum, Armenia may soon
have a Turkish-speaking frontier region in the south, with all the
national security threats deriving thereof. There is an opinion that
Armenia's steps towards resolving the problems of Armenian-populated
region of Javahk can exacerbate Armenian-Georgian relations. But as
a matter of fact, it is Yerevan and Tbilisi's ignoring attitude that
creates breeding ground for Armenian-Georgian conflicts," Abrahamyan
stressed.
"Georgian authorities believe that such anti-Armenian policy will
eliminate possible threats of losing the region, whereas such
policy has cause-effect relationship with Armenians' discontent. As
regards Georgia's policy to Armenia, it bears formal nature. That's
why Georgian authorities do not pay due attention to the status of
Armenian language in Javahk, possibility of uniting Tsalka region with
Samtskhe-Javakheti and strengthening local self-government bodies. If
Armenian leadership had more far-sighted approach to Javahk issue,
we'd now have quite different position in the region. Turkey's current
foreign policy would not be so crucial in terms of communication,"
Neo-conservative leader stressed.
