Civil activists make chain around the disputed part of the Davit Gareji Monastery

Civil activists gathered in the Davit Gareji Monastery Complex, where the Georgian and Azerbaijan borders cross each other. They have symbolically made a chain around the section of the Davit Gareji monastery complex, which is a matter of dispute with the Azeri side.

According to the protesters, they are sending a peaceful message to neighbor Azerbaijan that Davit Gareji is part of Georgia.

The activists are chanting and hoping that the issue of border demarcation will be resolved in the nearest future. They have walked several kilometers on foot to reach the abovementioned section of the monastery complex.

It should be noted that the Azeri border guards are deployed and observing the situation on several sections of the path to the monastery complex.

Georgian border guards are also on the perimeter and control the movement of citizens. No incident has taken place at the demonstration so far.
