NO MILITARY CARGO THROUGH U.LARS, SAYS GEORGIAN AMBASSADOR

"Neither bullet will pass through the Upper-Lars Checkpoint," said at
today’s briefing Georgia’s Ambassador to Armenia Grigol Tabatadze, when
asked to comment statements by the Azerbaijani side that the checkpoint
will be used for transportation of Russian-made weapons to Armenia.

"I’d like to remind that there is a rule of occupation, which came
in force in Georgia after Parliament’s approval, and this rule bans
any military cooperation with Russia. So, neither military cargo will
pass through the Upper-Lars Checkpoint," he stressed.

Ambassador Tabatadze also pointed that the checkpoint’s opening
doesn’t mark any Georgia-Russia reconciliation, and added that the
talks on Upper-Lars were held in Armenia.

"The talks were held in Armenia, but they were not direct, and the
Armenian side was a mediator," said Georgian Ambassador.

He also said of the fact that Georgia will receive neither financial
nor economic profit from the opening of the Upper-Lars Checkpoint,
as in accordance with the county’s law, a transit isn’t subjected to
a tax.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
