Armenia should invest serious efforts in assisting Georgian-Armenians, President Serzh Sargsyan said today in his opening speech delivered at the annual meeting between MFA central staff and Heads of Armenian diplomatic missions abroad.

"I find that the steps directed at recognizing Armenian as regional language in Georgia, registering Armenian Apostolic Church and maintaining Armenian monuments will contribute to the strengthening of Armenian-Georgian mutual ties," Armenian leader stressed, adding that Armenia should adopt delicate approach to those issues, holding at the same time consistent and firm stance.
