Georgian Foreign Minister Grigol Vashadze has commented on the decision of the breakaway Abkhazia to pull out from the international negotiations held in Geneva traditionally since the August War ceasefire agreement.
Minister said the puppet regime acted like puppets and only voiced the decisions by the Kremlin. Vashadze said this decision was the continuation of the clown show directed by Russia. He said Russia wanted to pull out the Abkhaz regime from the only peaceful negotiations.
`This is a clear example of the show, which has been directed by the Kremlin. After succeeding to stop the mission of OSCE and UN in Georgia`s conflict regions, now they decided to obstruct to the only peaceful negotiations in this problem,,` Vashadze said and added that Abkhazia had never been an independent subject at Geneva talks.
Vashadze accuses Russia of aiming to prevent imposition of peace and stability in t he region.
Georgia has held talks in Geneva with its breakaway regions of Abkhazia and South Ossetia since Russia recognised both as independent after its war with Georgia in 2008, aiming to prevent armed clashes along the regions` boundaries.
All three sides have complained of slow progress in the talks, which are co-chaired by the United Nations, the Organisation for Security and Cooperation in Europe and the European Union.
`The Republic of Abkhazia has informed the office of the secretariat overseeing the five-party talks ... that it is temporarily withdrawing from future discussions because the sessions have not produced tangible progress,` Nadir Bitiyev, the Abkhaz leader`s senior aide, said in a statement.
