The Georgian Orthodox Church passed a statement after the fire at
the Church of St. Nikolai (Surb Nshan) on Serebryanaya Str. in Tbilisi.
The Georgian patriarch says that the church needs enforcement. A joint
commission should be organized for archeological studies. Georgian
and Armenian officials must take part in the process to give impartial
results.
Churches require scientific research before being passed to the
Georgian Church on the basis of equality. This concerns Georgian
churches in Armenia, Lor-Tashir Eparchy and the Armenian churches
in Georgia.
