Armenian bishop Ter Vazgen MIrzakhanyan during his visit to Javakhetia
compactly-populated by Armenians said there are problems connected
with Armenian Apostolic Church, APA reports quoting Armenian media.

Ter Vazgen MIrzakhanian said no religious minority was registered in
Georgia and the main problem is to determine the church’s status.

"The other problem is to return Tbilisi’s Surb Norashen and
Akhalkalak’s Surb Nshan churches to Armenian Apostolic Church. The day
will come when these churches and Javakheti will be ours. Taking the
realities into account, we are satisfied with the present situation
so far. The main problem of our people is to achieve recognition of
Nagorno Karabakh’s independence on the international scale," he said.
