MP: Tension and misunderstanding increases between Armenia and Georgia
Tension and misunderstanding between Armenia and Georgia have recently
increased, Chairman of the Committee on Foreign Relations of the
Armenian National Congress Vladimir Karapetyan said at a press
conference today, Armenia Today reported.
He was summarising the activity of the current authorities in the
international arena.
Before incumbent Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan came to power, the
Armenian and Georgian presidents met several times a year. But there
was no high level visit in 2013. He stressed that the new authorities
formed after the elections in Georgia actually have no interest in
Armenia. Tourism develops only unilaterally. Only Armenian tourists
show interest in Georgia. Armenia's unexpected decision to join the
Customs Union was another challenge.
Despite all the positive tendencies in Armenian- Iranian relations,
the negative features were observed here after Sargsyan came to power.
Trade turnover with Iran decreased 10 percent.
