Yerevan, 21 October: Armenia has to pursue a flexible and stable policy
regarding Georgia, not a rough policy that Yerevan is pursuing now,
the leader of the Democratic Party of Armenia, Aram Sarkisyan, said
at a news conference at the Azdak discussion club today.
Sarkisyan described the arrest of Vaagn Chakhalyan, one of leaders
of the [Georgia’s] United Javakhk organization, as shameful. “Nobody
believes the foolish statement that Chakhalyan had illegally crossed
the Armenian-Georgian border. It is clear that his imprisonment
in the detention centre of the National Security Service has a
political nature and is aimed at playing with Georgian President
Mikheil Saakashvili,” the MP said.
[Passage omitted: Sarkisyan advised Armenian Foreign Minister
Vardan Oskanyan to take over the role of a mediator between Russia
and Georgia]
