ONE MORE CHANCE FOR ARMENIANS OF GEORGIA

November 24, 2003 - 04:00 AMT  00:43 GMT
The new realities appeared in Georgia after the resignation of the President Eduard Shevardnadze gave the Armenian community a chance to strengthen its weakened positions. We shall remind that if the Parliamentary elections held on November 2 were not considered illegal, the representation of Armenians in the legislative body should reduce twice. Now there are serious bases to believe besides the three Armenians that have won, other two our compatriots will pass to the Parliament through the lists of opposition. But the main thing is that it will be possible to maintain the atmosphere of the mutual understanding in the Armenian community which was being split to those who were for Shevardnadze and those who were against.
