    CLASH IN AKHALQALAQ

    On May 4 collision occurred in Azmana village of Akhalqalaq. Adzharian
    villagers of Azmana being provoked by Georgian Misha Natenadze residing in
    the same village threw stones at the Armenian villagers. Then an attempt was
    made to bring about 50 young Adzharians from the neighboring Aspindza
    District to involve them in the conflict.

    But the Armenian young people having arrived from Armenian villages of
    Akhalqalaq frightened the Adzharians from Aspindza who left Akhalqalaq
    District.

    Adzharians of Azmana hurled stones at Akhalqalaq District policemen who had
    arrived at the scene, too. To relax tension Nikoloz Nikolozashvili, Georgian
    President's envoy extraordinary in Samtckhe-Javakhq, arrived in Akhalqalaq.
    The local leadership and he managed to alleviate tension and to reconcile
    the sides.

    The Armenian part made concessions since the accident was just an attempt to
    cause an armed conflict between the Armenians and the Adzharians.
