Ethnic Armenian groups planning to petition for federal Georgian
state
After Kvemo-Kartli, separatist groups are now becoming more active in
Samtskhe-Javakheti. The Armenian population in Akhalkalaki is calling
for autonomy. Members of the local Javakhk and Virk organizations
raised this issue at a forum of an Armenian public organization
called the Samtskhe-Javakheti union. The forum, which ended about an
hour ago, was attended by Armenians from Tbilisi and Yerevan. They
plan to petition for a federal Georgian state. Staff from several
Russian television channels and new agencies were also in Akhalkalaki
today.
