YEREVAN, NOVEMBER 26, NOYAN TAPAN. Issues related to bilateral
Armenian-Georgian relations were discussed at the November 26 meeting
of Secretary of the National Security Council (NSC) of Armenia Arthur
Baghdasarian and the newly-appointed Georgian Ambassador to Armenia
Grigor Tabatadze. The sides were unanimous in their opinion that the
relations between the two countries have a friendly basis and there are
no problems which are impossible to solve through joint discussions.

The press service of the NSC Secretary reports that the
sides also addressed agenda issues, including the problems of
Javakhk. A. Baghdasarian raised the issue of the Armenian Church’s
lands in the territory of Georgia, as well as the socioeconomic
problems of Javakhk. The Georgian ambassador said that a decision was
made, under which the ruined Surb Gevorg Mughnetsots Church (Saint
George of Mughni Church) in Tbilisi will be restored within a year,
and the Georgian authorities keep Javakhk’s problems in the center
of their attention.
