Politics

Georgia's Defense Minister David Tevzadze having strained relations with Russia, has been waited for since morning in "Haghtanak" (Victory) Park which is considered to be the symbol of Armenian-Russian Military Collaboration . It's Tevzadze's first official visit to Armenia. Armenian Defense Minister Serj Sargsyan greeted him in the Park.

When welcoming the guard of honour, the beads for wasting time were in the hands of the general military man of our neighbouring country . Tevzadze greeted Armenian soldiers with fluent Armenian.

Serj Sargsyan's last year visit became the base for the bilateral military cooparetion. Tevzadze says: "We've just begun cooperating and must set up the collaboration directions" .

The Minister's visit plan was changed on the eve. Signing of the summarizing protocol was not envisaged in the program distributed among the journalists. Serj Sargsyan had to say the Protocol would be signed. He also announced they wouldn't discuss Javakhk issue . "Military officials have no need to discuss Javakhk issue" .

But Tevzadze had to speak about Javakhk people or rather the issue of Akhalkalak's Russian military base set there. The Russian base will soon be liquidated . "There is problem of social tension as 60 % of Akhalkalak people live thanks to the base. We work on solving the problem" .

Tevzadze's visit will last till September 18.
