Azerbaijan is Georgia's military partner whereas Armenia is the
country's neighbour and partner. The turnover between Azerbaijan and
Georgia surpassed $410 mln and between Georgia and Armenia - $113
mln. The figures were presented by Elena Imedashvili, the Director of
the "BS press" News Agency during a three-day seminar in Georgia. The
seminar was organised by the Yerevan Press Club with the support of
Fredrikh Ebert Foundation.
It was primarily supposed that the seminar participants would be
top-officials and NGOs from the two countries under question. According
to Director of the Fredrikh Ebert Georgian Foundation Ia Tikanadze, the
officials had nothing to discuss therefore they refused participation.
During the seminar Georgian and Armenia journalists dwelt on the
coverage of Armenian-Georgian relations and issues related to South
Caucasus.
The Georgian journalists attempted to persuade their Armenian
counterparts that soon the Javakhq issue would be settled and life
would better.
It turned out that the two sides knew little about their neighboring
countries. The reason for their ignorance is determined by self
censorship existing in both countries.
To A1+'s request to comment on the Karabakh conflict, the editor of
"Alina" newspaper Georgy Tsiklaury said Georgians aren't interested
in it.
