Georgian Prime Minister Bidzina Ivanishvili's upcoming visit to
Armenia will have major significance not only for Armenian-Georgian
relations but also in the regional context, Caucasus Institute Deputy
Director, political analyst Sergey Minasyan told reporters in Yerevan.
According to him, the new Georgian authorities try to introduce
changes into the country's foreign policy, including to improve
relations with Russia. There is also some dynamics in
Georgian-Azerbaijani relations, which is not so positive, said the
expert.
"During the upcoming visit of Georgia's PM, discussions will take
place around some rather serious issues, including those related to
the region and to the problems of Georgian-Armenians," Mr Minasyan
said.
Either before or after Ivanishvili's visit to Armenia, some
developments are expected to take place regarding the case of
Georgian-Armenian activist Vahagn Chakhalyan whose name has been
removed from the list of prisoners who will be set free following the
adoption of amnesty law in Georgia, Mr Minasyan noted, which will be
seen as Georgia's positive message to Armenia.
