Rally in Akhalkalaki for Armenian Language Status

Akhalkalaki-based Virk and Javakhk organizations held a protest rally on April 13 demanding that Armenian be made the second official language in Samtskhe-Javakheti. The region is predominantly populated by ethnic Armenians.

The protesters want special status for local languages in non-ethnic Georgian majority regions.

The rally lasted for an hour.
