    Minister Oskanian Visits Samtskhe-Javakheti Region of Georgia, Meets with
    Members of Georgia's Diplomatic Corps


    As he concluded his working visit to Georgia, Foreign Minister returned to
    Armenia from Batumi. His return trip included stops in Akhaltskha and
    Akhalkalak.

    In Akhaltskha, he met with officials of the Samtskhe-Javakheti region, as
    well as representatives of the Armenian community and the youth.

    The Minister's next stop was Akhalkalak. There, Minister Oskanian visited
    the Holy Cross Church, met with Armenian community representatives and
    Georgian Parliamentarians of Armenian origin who represent the region.

    During the meetings, the Armenian Foreign Minister spoke in detail about
    Armenia's foreign policy priorities, Armenian-Georgian relations and
    forthcoming bilateral projects. He also responded to questions.

    That same afternoon, on his way to Yerevan, the Minister stopped in Lori to
    meet with more than a dozen members of Georgia's diplomatic corps who were
    visiting Armenia's Lori region, at the invitation of Armenia's Ambassador to
    Georgia, Hrach Silvanian. The ambassadors, accompanied by Lori's regional
    governor Aram Kocharian, the primates of the Gugarats and Georgian Dioceses
    of the Armenian Apostolic Church, as well as representatives of the
    Armenian Foreign Ministry and the Mother See of Etchmiadzin, visited the
    monasteries of Haghpat and Sanahin, the home-museum of Anastas and Artem
    Mikoyans in Sanahin and the copper-molybdenum factory of Alaverdi. The visit
    served to better familiarize the diplomats about the life, traditions,
    culture and economy of Armenia's regions bordering Georgia.
