"Although Armenian and Georgia claim to be friendly nations, their relations are much of a show," the Chairman of the Javakhk compatriotic union, member of the Armenian Parliament Shirak Torosyan told reporters on March 17.

According to him, Armenians residing in Georgia have numerous problems, the urgent ones being the Armenian language, status of the Armenian Apostolic Church, putting an end to acts of persecution against Javakhk activists and free transportation of people and cargoes through checkpoints.

He pointed out that, along with the Georgian authorities’ “ostrich policy,” the Javakhk Armenians are now raising the issue of autonomy.
