Georgian Foreign Minister Maya Panjikidze said giving a status of
autonomy to Javakhk is out of the question.
“Armenians living in Georgia are citizens of the country and have
equal rights with Georgians. Therefore, giving them any other status
is out of the question,” she said during her visit to Baku.
Earlier Georgian Internal Minister Irakly Garibashvili assured Javakhk
is not threatening national interests of Georgia.
Javakheti or Javakhk (in Armenian) is a region in south of Georgia
mainly populated by Armenians.
