    Javakhk is gunpowder keg which will once explode - ARFD member

    YEREVAN.- Georgia has recently adopted complicated approach to the
    Armenian-populated Javakhk region, said representative of ARF
    Dashnaktsutyun bureau Hrant Margaryan.

    On the one hand, up-to-date communication and energy infrastructure is
    being implemented in the region, on the other hand it remains the most
    economically backward regions of Georgia, he said.

    `Moreover, the Georgian authorities continue to exert pressure on the
    active groups of the society and create an atmosphere of fear. They
    hamper preservation of Armenian identity of Javakhk people and
    continue political discrimination against Armenians carrying out the
    policy of demographic changes to the detriment of the Armenians,'
    Margaryan noted.

    ARF Dashnaktsutyun continues its support of Armenians' demands on
    gaining autonomy for Javakhk region.

    Margaryan stressed that Javakhki is a gunpowder keg which will explode
    sooner or later unless reasonable approach is developed.

    Javakhk (Georgian name - Javakheti) is an Armenian-populated part of
    Georgia's southeastern Samtskhe-Javakheti province.
