Georgia Not Interested in Departure of Armenian Population from Javakhetia

Armenia is mistaken to think that Georgia is interested in the departure of Armenians, Georgian Ambassador to Armenia Revaz Gachechiladze stated in Yerevan. He underscored that Samtskhe-Javakhetia is an Armenian-populated region of Georgia and it’s inadmissible to view it another way. “We share the anxiety of the Armenian party and consider that it’s legal. Georgia should pay attention to the regions including Javakhetia,” Gachechiladze noted.

The Ambassador said the Georgian parliament like the population of Javakhetia is interested in creation of work places. “We should create the essential conditions for the attraction of investments and encourage private business in the region,” he noted, reported Apsny.Ge.
