Georgian FM: There Is No Javakhk on the Map

YEREVAN (Combined Sources)—In an odd manifestation of Tbilisi’s diplomatic overtures, Georgian Foreign Minister Grigol Vashadze, who is on a visit to Yerevan, denied the existence of Javakhk at a press conference Monday following meetings with Armenian officials.

  1. When you make comments like “there is no Javakh”, you are a bigger threat to Armenia’s security than Russia.  When you instigate wars with Russia, you are a bigger threat to regional peace than Russia.  How sad that you don’t see your goal to conquer and Georgianize the Abkhazians and Ossetians as imperialistic and wrong, even as you complain about Russia’s attempts to do the same to you.

  2. During his visit to Yerevan, Vashadze should be treated to a geography lesson courtesy of the Republic of Armenia. What a neighborhood we live in. To the east, we have the people who oppressed our people and threaten war regularly. To the west , we stare every day at the depopulated area of western Armenia as a result of a genocide commited by another neighbor. To the north, we have these Georgian who are attempting to assimilate the Armenians who live within their borders. And this has been going on with our neighbors for a few thousand years. God has truly blessed us with a survival instinct… otherwise we would be like many other great civilizations that faded into extinction. Given the geopolitical realities, it really is a miracle and there is no doubt in  my mind that our people will prevail.

  3. That is very true,there was no Javakhk on the  Georgian map historically, cause Javakhk is Armenians land and it was part of the Armenia, until the time not to long ago it was given to Georgians , Georgia as a good nabore of Armenia must return Javakhk back, to where it used to belong, evry just person knows where the truth lies, not telling the truth is bad to have a good relations.

  4. Vashadze, humiliate  Nalbandnian and Armenians, right in Armenia….Vashadze should thank to his old man, uncle Jo, who connected Javakhk to his beloved Georgia…

  5. Who is the Georgian Prime Minister kidding that there is no such area as Javakh. He knows the history of what happened when Stalin under Soviet rule took the Javakh Region and gave it to his Georgian brothers in 1922. Not many know that Stalin the Dictator was a Georgian. The Armenian Government must stand up to defend the rights of the Armenians in Javakh whom should declare an Autonomous State within Georgia, just as Ossetia & Abkhasia, with the right to join the join the Free Republic of Armenia in due time.  Stephen T.
