YEREVAN. - The main problem of the Javakhk Armenians is the regional
government officials that were appointed during the rule of Georgian
President Mikheil Saakashvili.
Georgian affairs specialist Alik Eroyants noted the aforementioned
during a press conference on Saturday.
In his words, the Armenians of Javakhk - Georgian name: Javakheti, is a
predominantly-Armenian-populated part of Georgia's southeastern
Samtskhe-Javakheti Province - pin great hopes on the ruling Georgian
Dream coalition, specifically on its leader, PM Bidzina Ivanishvili.
`Ivanishvili's team will win the forthcoming presidential election,
which assumes a binding solution to the problems that the [Georgian]
Armenians face,' Eroyants noted.
The analyst also stressed that the Meskhetian Turks' resettlement in
Georgia is a serious threat for the Georgian Armenians in the context
of Georgian-Turkish relations. But at this point, as per the analyst,
there are no specific threats in that plan.
`The number of people wanting to return to Georgia is not that many,'
Alik Eroyants added.
