The Georgian President and his cabal seem to have an incredible talent and capacity to attain lowest degree of baseness! Most people become puppets with reluctance, this is the only one that relishes it with a gusto.

/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The process of preservation of Georgia as an empire has been carried from Abkhazia and South Ossetia to Samtskhe-Javakheti-Tsalka, an Armenian expert said.

"Having lost control over the breakaway regions, the Georgian authorities are trying to cement positions in the Armenian-inhabited territories, targeting people who can struggle for their national values and faith," Vahe Sargsyan, expert at Mitq analytical center said in a statement obtained by PanARMENIAN.Net.

"Grigor Minasyan and Sargis Hakobjanyan are the people who maintained Armenian culture in Samtskhe Javakheti. It's ridiculous that these people are charged of espionage and formation of illegal armed unit. Such actions of the Georgian authorities instigate public hatred not only in Samtskhe Javakheti but also in other regions."

These arrests may aim to open church-political haggling with Armenia and appropriate Surb Nshan Armenian church in Akhaltsikhe and some other churches in the region, according to the expert.

Re: Similarities between Georgian and Armenian alphabets

Done.

I wanted it to be the opposite, meaning our posts go to Yerazhishda's thread But it's okay.

Good eye Yerazhishda. I also noticed this in the Armenian-Georgian relations thread. Could a mod be kind enough to move those posts into this thread? Thanks.

Done.

Armenian side opposes formation of commission on Surb Norashen

/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The Armenian side is against formation of a commission to be charged with a task to clear up whom Surb Norashen belongs to. This church is Armenian, said bishop Vazgen Mirzakhanyan, head of the Georgian Diocese of the Armenian Apostolic Church.

“Five churches should be returned to the AAC, namely Surb Norashen, Surb Nshan, Shamkhoretsots Surb Astvatsatsin (Karmir Avetaran), Yerevanots Surb Minas and Mugni Surb Gevorg. The fact that these churches are Armenian is not questioned. Georgia’s claims that the foundation of the churches is Georgian are absurd. If there is a Georgian archeologist of genius who could define whom a church belongs to, he would undoubtedly be worth of Noble Prize,” the bishop said.

He also refuted the Georgian Patriarchate’s statement that an agreement on formation of a commission was achieved during the November 26 meeting in Tbilisi. “More than 20 Armenian churches have been already transformed into Georgian ones in 1990ies. The Armenian side could agree to form a commission if the problem of these churches is also addressed,” bishop Mirzakhanyan said, Bagin.info reports.

Presently, 32 reconstructed Armenian churches function in Georgia. Majority of them are situated in Samtskhe Javakheti and Kvemo Kartli.

Re: Armenian Georgian Relations

The chauvinist regime in Gruzia that has ruled the country since 1990 is an enemy of all nationalities in the region, including Gruzians and Armenians. Its brutal policy against Abkhazia and Ossetia is one which all Armenians must condemn. The regime in Gruzia has allowed the Anglo-American-Zionist bloc to turn the country into a base from which to unleash aggression and subversive activities against Russia, Iran, Armenia, and others. The situation of Armenians in Gruzia has seriously deteriorated since 1990. They suffer discrimination with regard to government representation, employment, and language rights.

Re: Armenian Georgian Relations

Are there any Russian "peacekeepers" in Javakhetia?

No.

And because of the war over the summer, what if Georgia decided to close its border with Armenia?

God forbid because they would lost alot more than Javakh.

How would the Russians have reacted to that? Closing borders is an act of war.

Considering Armenia is in CSTO I wonder why we havn't requested Russia to send some Ballistic Missiles towards Turkey yet.... After all, closing the borders was an act of warefare against the Republic of Armenia.

No peacekeepers in Javakhk. There used to be a Russian base there that employed many Javakhkian-Armenians but that's gone now making their situation even more dire.

It wouldn't close because it has no reason to do so. Armenia maintains friendly relations with Georgia and is an ally with Russia at the same time. Yerevan has masterfully kept good relations with Iran, Russia, Georgia and USA simultaneously.
