GEORGIA'S RULING AND OPPOSITION PARTIES ARE INDIFFERENT TO PLIGHT OF JAVAKHQ-ARMENIANS
Tert.am
14:45 ~U 24.03.10
Both ruling and opposition parties of Georgia are completely
indifferent to the requests and demands of the Armenian community in
the country's Samtskhe-Javakhq-Tsalka region, according to a statement
released by Russia's Javakhq-Armenian community.
"This once again convinces all of us that Georgia's ruling party, as
well as the opposition, basically, don't have any national programs:
they are simply struggling within themselves for a seat and a tasty
meal, stemming from their own interests," reads the release.
There's no difference between Georgia's ruling party and the
opposition, say Javakhq-Armenian community members.
"Objective prerequisites have been created in Georgia today,
when whatever opposition party could display its distinctiveness
and perfection, speaking about the violation of the rights of the
Samtskhe-Javakhq-Tsalka Armenians and, in general, Georgia's other
ethnic minorities," write Russia's Javakhq-Armenian NGOs, inviting all
interested parties and opposition parties to an open dialogue through
teleconference, round tables and other civilized forms of discussion.
Javakhq is a region in Georgia with a large ethnic Armenian
population. There have been several protests and clashes with police
about the treatment of Javakhq-Armenians, who say they have experienced
discrimination and their rights violated by the Georgian authorities.
