GEORGIA'S KURDS STAGE PROTEST

-They explained that the fear that if Georgia joins
NATO, Turkey will establish military bases in Georgia,
which will lead to reprisals against Georgia's Kurds. 


Some 50 members of Georgia's estimated 25,000-strong
Kurdish minority staged a demonstration in Tbilisi on
8 October to demand that the Georgian government
abandon its ongoing military cooperation with Turkey
and its plans to seek NATO membership, Caucasus Press
and Russian news agencies reported. They explained
that the fear that if Georgia joins NATO, Turkey will
establish military bases in Georgia, which will lead
to reprisals against Georgia's Kurds. They threatened
mass protests if the Georgian leadership fails to meet
their demand within two weeks. LF
