Armenia's policy towards Javahk - based on comityNovember 13, 2009 - 16:45 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - A key issue demanding Armenian authorities' rapid and effective response is Javahk problem. However, Armenia's policy in that regard remains on the level of comity. Such approach may cause Armenians to quit their historical homeland, Head of National Neo-conservative movement Edward Abrahamyan reported to PanARMENIAN.Net "Given that nature abhors a vacuum, Armenia may soon have a Turkish-speaking frontier region in the south, with all the national security threats deriving thereof. There is an opinion that Armenia's steps towards resolving the problems of Armenian-populated region of Javahk can exacerbate Armenian-Georgian relations. But as a matter of fact, it is Yerevan and Tbilisi's ignoring attitude that creates breeding ground for Armenian-Georgian conflicts," Abrahamyan stressed. "Georgian authorities believe that such anti-Armenian policy will eliminate possible threats of losing the region, whereas such policy has cause-effect relationship with Armenians' discontent. As regards Georgia's policy to Armenia, it bears formal nature. That's why Georgian authorities do not pay due attention to the status of Armenian language in Javahk, possibility of uniting Tsalka region with Samtskhe-Javakheti and strengthening local self-government bodies. If Armenian leadership had more far-sighted approach to Javahk issue, we'd now have quite different position in the region. Turkey's current foreign policy would not be so crucial in terms of communication," Neo-conservative leader stressed.
