YEREVAN. - In early April, the Armenians of Javakhk-Georgian name:
Javakheti, is a predominantly-Armenian-populated part of Georgia's
southeastern Samtskhe-Javakheti Province-had staged a demonstration
in downtown Tbilisi, Aravot daily reports.
"The media reported that the 400 demonstrators in front of the
Georgian PM's residence were demanding an end to the attempts by some
political forces in Georgia to 'sow enmity between Georgia's Armenian
and Georgian citizens.'
Armenia's Ambassador to Georgia, Hovhannes Manukyan, told Aravot the
following in this regard:
'We cannot rule out that individual marginal forces, or figures,
might attempt to make ethnic enmity serve their petty political
objectives; this is politics. But I do not see, in the Georgian
society, a favorable ground for the spread of this perilous disease.
The friendship of the Armenian and Georgian peoples was formed under
the most heated historical conditions, and the historical recollection
of our peoples is an insurmountable obstacle before any challenge
that threatens the Armenian-Georgian friendship,'" Aravot quotes.
