Today “Guards of Spirit” students’ youth organization of
“Armenian Courageous Unity” complained to the Georgian Embassy
in Armenia. Particularly it is mentioned in the complaint:
“Mr. Ambassador, we complain against anti-Armenian policy which has
a recurrent and purposeful character.”

As the authors of the announcement assure Georgian regimes “want to
de-armenianize Akhltskha, Akhlkalak, Aspnjakan, Bogdanovka, Tsalka
and other Armenian dwellings by all inadmissible means.”

“Mr. Ambassador, we demand: 1) Immediately to stop Georgianization
of Armenian historical-cultural and religious values in Georgia and
historical Armenian territories, 2) To punish those guilty for the
murder of Armenian young man in Tsalka publicly and severely, 3) To
restore study of Armenian History in Armenian schools in Georgia, 4)
To cease the de-armenianization and national assimilation policy of
Georgia in Armenian territories.”

We appreciated the amity of our neighbor Georgia, yet at the moment
all those friendly assurances have no value for us any longer as we are
the witnesses of assimilation process of more than 150 Armenians. We,
the Armenian youth, have learned a lesson from our history and we
shall not allow the events of 1915 to repeat,” mention the authors
of the announcement.
