Member of the Republican Party of Armenia, Chairman of Javakhk
compatriots' union Shirak Torosyan said that the problem of
Azerbaijanis in Georgia is a secondary matter for Azerbaijan,
since Turkey and Azerbaijan have managed to engage Georgia in their
anti-Armenian policy.
"The Azerbaijani authorities do not encourage voicing these problems
not to offend the Georgian leadership, as long as Georgia is involved
in anti-Armenian programs," Torosyan told a press conference in
Yerevan.
Torosyan pointed out to the case of detainment of the Head of Assembly
of Azerbaijanis of Georgia in Baku.
Torosyan added that though Azerbaijan temporarily turns a blind eye on
violations of Azerbaijanis' rights in Georgia for the sake of Georgia's
engagement in the anti-Armenian policy, it will not last for long,
specifically, due to the rapidly growing number of Azerbaijanis
in Georgia.
Chairman of Yerkir union Sevak Artsruni noted for his part that though
some problems of Azerbaijanis are solved internally in Georgia and such
an open persecution is not applied towards them, but Azerbaijanis face
the same problems in this country as the Armenian community of Georgia.
He added that cooperation with the Azerbaijani community for the
protection of common rights has not been launched yet.
