Armenian Diocese calls upon Saakashvili and other leaders of the UNM to abstain from provocative statements

27/1/13 The release of political prisoners and other amnestied persons, including Vahagn Chakhalyan caused furious reactions from the opposition party, United National Movement. During the last weeks, and especially yesterday their representatives have been making incorrect statements, trying thus to disseminate anti-Armenian sentiments in the multinational Georgian society. President Mikheil Saakashvili and Secretary General of the UNM Vano Merabishvili stated that Vahagn Chakhalyan, whom they had imprisoned on political grounds, was a separatist, agent of foreign intelligence services and an enemy of the Georgian state.
