The Armenian National Security Service has dismissed the media
reports about clashes on the Georgian- Armenian border between the
two countries’ border guards, involving Georgian troops.
"The small issue that arose in relation to the current demarcation at
the Armenian-Georgian border, more fits into the notion of ‘a working
dispute’," NSS spokesman Artsvin Bagramian told Interfax.
Georgian troops were not called to the border and neither the Armenian,
nor Georgian border chiefs traveled to the scene, he said.
There was no incident on the Georgian-Armenian border, said the
Georgian border authority.
"There were no flare-ups at the Georgian-Armenian border, and
the reports about some incident between the Georgian and Armenian
border guards are untrue," the Georgian border police told Interfax
on Thursday.
"The situation on the border is absolutely calm," the agency said.
At this stage a commission set up by the two countries is carrying
out a border delimitation that will be followed by its demarcation,
the border police said.
