    GEORGIA'S RULING AND OPPOSITION PARTIES ARE INDIFFERENT TO PLIGHT OF JAVAKHQ-ARMENIANS

    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.
