/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Georgian authorities brought new charges against
Javakhk activist Vahagn Chakhalyan.

The prosecution uses Chakhalyan’s `Prison and political notes’ book as
a ground for a new criminal case. The Akhalkalaki police allegedly
found proofs allowing to bring new accusations against Mr. Chakhalyan,
who has already been sentenced to 10 years’ imprisonment.

Yerkir Union strongly condemns the new wave political repressions
against Vahagn Chakhalyan. `These accusations appear as an attempt to
intimidate Javakheti Armenians before the elections to local
self-government due on May 30, 2010,’ the Union said.

“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
