    Alexander Lomaia, the education minister, has denied the government
    planned to open an Armenian-language university in Akhalkalaki in
    the southern Georgian region of Samtskhe-Javakheti.

    "We believe that our education system's capacity provides enough
    opportunities to let our citizens of Armenian ethnicity, living in
    Akhalkalaki or Ninotsminda, to receive education in Georgia in the
    Georgian-language universities," Lomaia told reporters on August 22.

    Meanwhile, Prime Minister Zurab Nogaideli told a government session on
    August 22 that the authorities had "an ambitious plan" to overhaul
    secondary schools throughout Georgia. Minister Lomaia said the
    reconstruction of 400 schools was planned.

    "I want to request local governors in the regions to pay special
    attention to this project and provide assistance," PM Nogaideli said.
