Yerevan/Mediamax/. Former Prime Minister of Georgia Vano Merabishvili
said that `Armenian way’ contradicts the Georgian state interests.

Secretary General of former ruling party `United National Movement’
Vano Merabishvili said this commenting on the statement of Georgian
Prime Minister Bidzina Ivanishvili who said that Armenia is a good
example that it’s possible to have good relations simultaneously with
Russia and NATO, Civil.ge reports.

`Though Armenia is a friendly country and I respect their choice, the
Armenian way contradicts Georgia’s state interests’, said
Merabishvili.

Another representative of `United National Movement’ Goka Gabashvili
stated that Armenia which is a CSTO member and cooperates with NATO
but doesn’t try to become its member can’t be a model for Georgia’s
foreign policy.

`It will be a 180-degrees- turn of the course of the foreign policy.
It’s very worrying and dangerous for Georgia’, he said.
