    Leadership of Gruzinform demands to punish the event organizers

    Tbilisi. Nizami Mammadzadeh - APA. A concert on the 20th anniversary
    of Shusha's occupation was organized by Armenian organizations on May
    9. APA's Georgia bureau reports that the concert was held in Nodar
    Dumbadze State Children's Theatre.

    Organization of Armenians of Tbilisi sent a statement to Gruzinform
    website about the concert. Gruzinform website published a letter
    protesting it. Editor-in-chief of the website Arno Khidirnegishvili
    released "Shusha, Tskhinvali or Sukhumi's occupation will be never
    marked in Georgia" words and expressed his protest to the organizers
    and initiators of the concert, at the same time analytic-information
    agencies which supported the concert.

    According to him, the event organizers held a provocative concert:
    "The provokers must know that the Azerbaijanis living in Georgia are
    Georgian citizens like Armenians. Georgia will never be a place of
    interethnic conflict because of Armenia-Azerbaijan conflict".

    Gruzinform website also addressed Georgian prosecutor general and
    ombudsman. The appeal says that the Georgian prosecutor's office
    must carry out a research on the fact and the functionaries must
    be punished. The letter of protest demands Ministry of Culture and
    Tbilisi Mayor's office to dismiss the theatre's leadership from the
    post: "to what degree it is right to mark the 20th anniversary of
    occupation of Shusha on May 9 - Day of victory over fascism? Who
    is interested in "rubbing salt into wounds", reminding a conflict,
    tragedy between two people? In our opinion, it is a work of people who
    try to destroy completely Georgia by instigating Armenia-Azerbaijan
    conflict through fraternal Abkhaz and Osetin people in Georgia's
    territory in favor of neighboring country".

    Gruzinform also addressed the United National Movement Party to comment
    the speech of MP Jondi Bagaturia on recognition of "Armenian genocide"
    made on April 24 in the parliament.
