I heard that alot of skinheads attack Armenians over there. I would like to see an article about the overseas Armenians in the former USSR. I would also like to learn their survival techniques on dealing with racists, skinheads, and police harassment. I also want to know more about Georgia. Are Georgians the enemies of Armenians? What are the relations between Armenia and Georgia? DO they get along? Can Georgians understand spoken Armenian? Are the languages and culture similar?
