Georgia worried about possible opening of Armenian-Turkish borderApril 3, 2009 - 13:42 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - Possible opening of the Armenian-Turkish border will affect Georgia, which has served as a transit for Armenian cargo so far, a Georgian official said. "Opening of the border is a positive phenomenon of itself. However, establishment of direct trade relations between Armenia and Turkey will inflict losses on our country," said Jemal Inaishvili, chairman of the Georgian chamber of commerce. "The flow of cargo destined for Turkey will decrease. Besides, the freight turnover in Poti and Batumi ports will be cut," he said. ![]() ![]() Azerbaijani authorities report that they have already resettled 3,000 people in the Nagorno-Karabakh town of Stepanakert.
