    Church in Georgia, return Armenian Churches, save and hold in respect
    Armenian cultural heritage. The protesters carry posters reading
    'Javakhk is my homeland', 'Say no to indifference', 'Return our
    churches', 'Georgians, you are Christian', Aysor's correspondent
    reported.

    These actions and protests rise from last developing in Georgia when
