ARMENIAN POLITICAL SCIENTIST DOESN’T HAVE HIGH HOPES FOR GEORGIAN PARLIAMENT’S ADOPTION OF ARMENIAN GENOCIDE RESOLUTION DRAFT
17:00, 24 March, 2015
YEREVAN, 24 MARCH, ARMENPRESS. The Parliament of Georgia won’t pass a
resolution on the Armenian Genocide. “Taking into account Georgia’s
trade and economic relations with Turkey and Azerbaijan, as well as
the presence of Turkish and Azerbaijani communities in Georgia, the
Armenian deputies’ discussions on the Armenian Genocide resolution
in the Georgian parliament won’t be fruitful,” member of the board
of the European Integration” NGO, political scientist Narek Minasyan
mentioned during a March 24 press conference, as “Armenpress” reports.
The political scientist noted that the ruling Georgian elite is facing
two very serious choices ahead of the Centennial of the Armenian
Genocide. “Turkey, which is Georgia’s number one partner in trade
and economy, has invited Georgia to participate in the celebrations
dedicated to the 100th anniversary of the Battle of Gallipoli, and
Georgia’s decision to accept or decline the invitation will show the
relations of which country are considered overriding for the Georgian
government,” Minasyan underscored.
