Armenian National Committee of America Chairman Ken Hachikian conducted a series of high-level meetings with Georgian authorities and Armenian community leaders in the organization’s efforts to call broader attention to the plight of the Armenian community in that country.

Hachikian was joined by ANCA Communications Director Elizabeth Chouldjian in discussing the Armenian American community’s concerns about the socio-economic situation in the regions and efforts to maintain the Armenian culture and language of the community in the broader tapestry of Georgia’s cultural diversity, Asbarez reports.

They held a number of meetings with Georgian officials, including Foreign Minister Grigol Vashadze, Cultural Minister Nikoloz Rurua, and representatives of the Ministries of Education, Justice, Regional Development and Infrastructure, Regional Integration and the National Security Council.

In Javakhk as in Tbilisi, the ANCA representatives spoke with a broad range of Armenian representatives of non-governmental organizations and the Armenian Church. 

 “In the upcoming months, we look forward to working with the Administration and Members of Congress and exploring ways to expand cooperation with our compatriots in the region,” said Ken Hachikian.
