/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Social and political organizations are a motive force
to Javahk political life, Vahe Sargsyan, an expert at Mitk Analytical
Center told a news conference in Yerevan. Yet, Javahk population is
unaware of most parties’ existence. "Out of 12 parties operating in
Javahk, only 2 are known," Sargsyan said.

At the same time, he noted that 152 NGOs are operating in 6 former
Javahk regions. Sargsyan also pointed out disbalance between the number
of Armenian and Georgian organizations. "Out of 77 Akhaltsikhe NGOs
only 8 are Armenian," Sargsyan stated, adding that Armenian NGOs in
Georgia are under permanent supervision of local authorities.
