The Georgian Foreign Ministry has denied the statement
"Armenian-Turkish border will not be opened" ascribed to Georgian
Foreign Minister Grigol Vashadze.
As the Armenian Foreign Ministry told ArmInfo, during a recent phone
conversation with Armenian Ambassador to Georgia Hrach Silvanyan,
Deputy Foreign Minister of Georgia Alexander Nalbandov said on
behalf and by instruction of Minister Grigol Vashadze: "The statement
disseminated by some mass media that Grigol Vashadze allegedly said
the Armenian-Turkish border wouldn’t be opened is false. He only said
that the border is still closed".
The Georgian Foreign Ministry qualifies these statements as provocative
information.
