 Georgian MP: Akhalkalaki Armenians’ language demand report untrue March 19, 2013 - 21:38 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - Georgian parliamentarian Zviad Kvachantiradze slammed the report suggesting that Akhalkalaki’s Armenian population demanded to make Armenian a state language. “No application regarding the issue above was ever sent to the parliament,” the First Vice Chairman of the Committee on Foreign Relations of the Parliament of Georgia said. “We’ll give people a chance to develop their own language, yet it doesn’t mean that the Georgian language won’t be used for record management at court.” “Georgian authorities are open for discussions, and won’t be able to avoid the responsibility. In 1999, President Saakashvili was the one who signed the European Charter for Regional or Minority Languages without consulting anyone,” Caucasus Online quoted Kvachantiradze as saying.
