Rstakian: withdrawal would be a catastrophe for Javakhk Armenians

11.03.2005  

YEREVAN (YERKIR) – Davit Rstakian, a Georgian Armenian politician,
voiced his concern over the Georgian parliament’s Thursday decision
to speed up the withdrawal of the Russian troops from Georgia,
including the military base stationed in Armenian-populated Akhalkalak,
Armenpress reported.

Speaking to Radio Liberty, Rstakian said that over 300 Armenians work
for the Russian military base at Akhalkalak, and withdrawing the base
would be a catastrophe for them.

Besides, he added, such withdrawal would change the balance of forces
in the region and breach the stability.
