No Armenian cultural monument is a subject for negotiations with
Georgia, Armenian Prime Minister Serzh Sargsyan said at the Armenian
National Assembly, Wednesday, in response to MP Armen Ashotyan’s
question regarding the problem with visits to the Armenian monument
Khorakert on the boundary with Georgia.
The premier said: "the given issue is not a subject for negotiations
with Georgia." However, Armen Ashotyan said Georgia does not allow
Armenian pilgrims to visit the monument threatening with detention for
border crossing. Earlier Armenian pilgrims had no problems with the
visits to the monument. The parliamentarian mentions that Azerbaijan
also faced a similar problem with the monument for David Garedzhi.
