  1. In the visit to Georgia by the Armenian Delegation, we hope that both nations will respect our closeness down through the centuries when Georgia became the 2nd Nation to adopt Christianity after Armenia. We also hope that Georgia will respect & not give harm to the Armenians living in Javakh which Stalin took away from the Armenian Nation. We must not forget that Stalin whom was also a Georgian was united with Kemal Attaturk that carved up & took away our Historical lands which must be returned to Armenia.
