Mosque to be built in Akhaltskha?
The New National Conservative Movement expresses its anger and protest against the Georgian authorities' subsequent anti-Armenian decision.
Georgian Minister of Culture Ruruan has announced that Georgia is planning to allow Turkey to build a mosque in Batumi. According to preliminary information, another Turkish mosque will be built in the indigenous Armenian Samtskhe-Javakhk region, that is, Akhaltskha.
"By doing everything possible to impede the activities of the Armenian Apostolic Church and not allowing the growth and the restoration of dilapidated Armenian churches, to the contrary, Christian Georgia is allowing the construction of Turkish mosques in its territory," as stated in the declaration.
The New National Conservative Movement considers the decision on building or "restoring" Turkish mosques in the indigenous Armenian territories a slap to Armenians and the Christian world and declares that it will do everything possible to fight against that anti-Armenian and anti-Christian decision."
