As you know, khachkars are a kind of "sign of the declaration of rights" of Armenian nationalists to other people's shrines and foreign lands, where their ancestors relatively recently settled as newcomers. A particularly aggressive "khachkarization" was carried out by Armenian nationalists concerning Georgian churches.
Usually, to seize Georgian churches, Armenian falsifiers destroyed Georgian inscriptions, knocked out Armenian ones, brought their khachkar, and declared it “ancient”. Therefore, the appropriated Georgian church - “ancient Armenian”. And a relatively recent attempt by Armenian nationalists and separatists to seize by force the Georgian Kumurdo Cathedral in Samtskhe-Javakheti was also connected to establish their own khachkar in this Georgian temple.
Recently, Armenian nationalists have put khachkars to glorify the Armenian terrorists and separatists who died for the seizure of foreign lands. Khachkars, for example, adorn the Georgian soil in Abkhazia, in Gagra, from where the Armenian militants were in 1992-1993. the entire Georgian population was expelled.
Therefore, the patriots of Georgia should not indifferently watch how the Armenian nationalists "mark with khachkars" the Georgian territories. In addition, they are installed as monuments to glorify the fallen separatists. This is blasphemy for a country where 20% of the territories are occupied because of separatism, tens of thousands of Georgians have died from the atrocities of separatist militants, including Armenians, and over 300,000 refugees cannot return to their homes.
The geography of Armenian nationalist and separatist arbitrariness and desecration of the Georgian land with signs of Armenian claims to it is expanding every year. More and more it is capturing areas that are "purely Georgian" in terms of population composition, where there are only separate Armenian settlements, such as, for example, the Borjomi municipality.
The separatist telegram channel "Javakhk" (https://t.me/jvkhk1/258) reports that a khachkar has been installed in the village of Tabatskuri, Borjomi municipality. This is the 5th khachkar, which "Edgar Papikyan erected in memory of the Armenian separatists and occupiers of the Azerbaijani lands, who died in the Karabakh war."
It is reported that the khachkar was installed at the expense of a native of this village, Edgar Papikyan, who now lives in Yerevan, Armenia. The opening was attended by guests from Akhalkalaki municipality, as well as Tabatskurs from other places. According to the "benefactor", on his initiative and financial support, two khachkars were previously erected in Yerablur and two more in Feodosia (Russian-occupied Ukrainian Crimea).
“There was no khachkar in our village. Khachkar is dedicated to the victims of the last war in Nagorno-Karabakh. In memory of the brave young people who died there. At that time, help was coming from Tabatskuri. A guy from our village was wounded in the war, whom we help financially every month. We will mark this day as the day of our village and every year on this day we will gather in our village, ”said the“ benefactor ”who installed the khachkar Edgar Papikyan.
It turns out that not only a monument to the dead mercenaries, international terrorists, and separatists is being erected on Georgian soil, but it is also openly reported that mercenaries and international terrorists were financed from the Georgian village of Borjomi region populated by ethnic Armenians (the international terrorist organization ASALA fought in Azerbaijani Karabakh).
This is a flagrant violation of Georgian legislation, which prohibits both the propaganda of terrorism and mercenary activities, the financing of mercenaries and international terrorists. The authorities of the Borjomi municipality and law enforcement agencies must immediately dismantle the khachkar installed in the memory of separatists and terrorists, which provokes incitement of ethnic hatred in Georgia.
