    SEVAK ARTSRUNI: WE MUSTN'T LINK ARMENIAN-GEORGIAN RELATIONS ISSUE TO JAVAHK PROBLEM

    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ "We mustn't link Armenian-Georgian relations issue
    to Javahk problem," Head of Yerkir Union Sevak Artsruni told a news
    conference in Yerevan. He noted similarities between Javahk problem
    and Armenian Genocide issue, which remains unresolved.

    "Within recent years Armenia repeatedly altered its opinion on
    different issues, but Diaspora stays true to its ideals. The main
    problem of Javahk's Armenian population lies in the fact that it hasn't
    yet formed a serious legislative force to protect its rights. Vahagn
    Chakhalyan is an enemy no.1 to Georgian authorities and they're
    aware of it," Artsruni noted, adding that Javahk needs a new leader,
    who could resist the authorities. According to him, Shirak Torosyan
    might become one, and this is the reason he was forbidden from Georgia.

    Artsruni also commented on the visit of Mikhail Saakashvili
    to Armenia, noting that the situation with Javahk will probably
    improve after Sahakashvili's downfall. "Don't expect major changes or
    concessions. The authorities will probably become a little more lenient
    towards Armenian community, and nothing more," Sevak Artsruni noted.
