Javakhk Armenians are still facing many socio-economic and educational
problems despite the decision of the Georgian parliament to grant
legal status to the Armenian Apostolic Church, head of the Virk
unregistered party, David Rstakyan told reporters.

According to the party leader, unemployment is key problem in Javakhk,
which forces young people to leave the region.

“Armenian government’s policy in Javakhk used to be active while
currently we are considered as a diaspora, but we are not a diaspora,”
David Rstakyan stressed.

In return, Head of the Javakhk Movement, Norik Karapetyan noted that
preservation of the Armenian identity is among the key challenges
Javakhk faces.
