The ties between Armenia and Georgia, most ancient Christian nations of Transcaucasia, are gaining an increasingly fundamental meaning, a member of Russia’s Civic 
Chamber said.
According to Denis Dvornikov, improvement of Georgia-Armenia relations, which are far from subtle, is long overdue. “Especially so, since actions aimed to deprive Christian states of the South Caucasus of their identity have been in progress.”
“At the same time, Georgia doesn’t have to join forces with Armenia against the third side. Rather, considering its geographic location and regional leadership goals, Tbilisi might become the center of peacemaking and humanitarian initiatives,” Dvornikov said.
“The history of nations professing Christianity in Transcaucasia must not be forgotten, as well as their goal to preserve their independence and territories, in which they did not always succeed. Mount Ararat being in the painful pages of Armenian history, Georgians might recall the history of Samsun and Trabzon, as well as Turkish politicians’ remarks suggesting the Black Sea is Turkey’s internal sea.
Ankara’s refusal to Recognize Abkhazia and South Ossetia must not mislead Tbilisi. Considering active Turkification of the Georgian shore, as well as active increase of Turkish presence in Sukhum, it is well possible for Ankara’s recognition to come overnight.”
According to Dvornikov, Armenian presence in Georgia was always significant though not aggressive, contrary to what some propagandists are trying to suggest. “Issues in bilateral ties are not a reason to foment animosity between the two fraternal Christian nations, with Armenians always showing dedication to the country which became their new homeland.”
“Aggression, massacres, unscrupulous use of mass propaganda must prompt the nations to unite to save their land, faith and history. With all of this in mind, Armenia and Georgia must have no doubts in the choice of their regional ally,” Dvornikov concluded.
