Armenians fail to hold rally outside Turkish embassy in Tbilisi
Armenian-planned "1915 genocide" rally to take place outside the Turkish embassy in Tbilisi on April 24 failed as the Georgian government did not authorize the rally, APA
Subsequently, the Armenians decided to hold their rally outside an Armenian church in Tbilisi’s predominantly-Armenian district Havlabar.

Georgian media, meanwhile, has written of the existence of a separatist threat in the Samtskhe-Javakheti region.

“If the vehicle which the Armenian community calls “special vehicle” carries protesters to the Turkish embassy, tomorrow the same bus or “special armed vehicles” will carry soldiers and terrorists to Georgian territory. The Georgian government must not turn a blind eye to actions of this content,” said a Georgian source.

Local news reports also say that the Armenian church is working against Georgian statehood.
