Head of the Yerkir Union Sevak Artsruni and program manager of the
Union Rober Tatoyan spoke about the forthcoming elections in Georgia,
particularly the issues of participation of Javakh Armenians.

There are a lot of problems to be solved in Javakhk. However, Head
of the Yerkir Union Sevak Artsruni is concerned about the fact that
those interested in solving the existing issues are threatened and
persecuted.

Speaking about the expectations from the forthcoming poll, Sevak
Artsruni said it’s the number one democratic tool Armenians should
use to fights for their rights.

According to program manager of the Union Rober Tatoyan, for many
years the Georgian authorities have been a policy of pressuring those
fighting for the rights of national minorities. Elections are the
means used for continuing the struggle.
