Tbilisi, 20 March: The head of the Multiethnic Georgia NGO, Arno
Stepanyan, has confirmed in remarks to Kavkas-Press that some 40-60
representatives of the Armenian political opposition are currently
in Georgia.
He said opposition representatives began entering Georgia two or
three days after the violent dispersal of protests in Yerevan [on 1
March] which followed the disputed Armenian presidential election on
19 February.
Stepanyan says it cannot be ruled out that some of them will request
asylum in Georgia.
