The first truck convoy with military equipment from the Russian base
in Akhalkalaki, southern Georgia, is heading for the Russian base in
Gyumri, northwestern Armenia, an official of the Russian army group
in the Caucasus told Itar-Tass on Thursday.

The 10-truck convoy has already crossed the Georgian-Armenian border,
the official said.

“Georgian military accompanied the convoy,” the official said.

In late May, another motor convoy from Akhalkalaki will leave for
Gyumri. Aside from military assets it will redeploy some military
vehicles there.

In compliance with the Russian-Georgian bilateral agreements most
hardware and munitions will be withdrawn from Georgia this year.

“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
