"The Georgians and Georgian authorities are completely wrong straining
relations with Armenians. Armenia never puts them under threat. Quite
the opposite, the more they found good relations with Armenia, the
more economic relations will be improved and Armenia could take the
role of mediator and do in favour in Russian-Georgian relations," Rafik
Petrosyan, member of NA Republican fraction told at news conference.

Official says Georgia rules an anti-Armenian policy voting against
Armenia in international organizations.

Republican deputy says Georgia adopted wrong policy on borders also,
for example at Ninotsminda checkpoint.

"Armenians of Djavakhq are not determined to turn face from Georgia
and join Armenia, they wish better life, improved roads, jobs, they
want to feel as real citizens," Petrosyan said and added that Georgia
would do in favor to them if they have changed they policy.
