I think most Georgians are not interested in moving closer to Russia right now, US Ambassador to Georgia Kelly Degnan said.
According to her, this is not the time I think Georgians are looking to move closer to Russia at all.
„I think most Georgians are not interested in moving closer to Russia right now, while Russia continues to occupy 20% of your territory, while Russia continues to attack and brutally assault civilians, civilian schools and hospitals and cities in Ukraine, trying to take Ukraine’s sovereignty and territory and identity the way Russia has tried to do in Georgia. This is not the time I think Georgians are looking to move closer to Russia at all”, said the Ambassador.
A recording of a conversation between Zurab Abashidze, Special Envoy of the Prime Minister of Georgia for Relations with Russia, and Grigory Karasin, Chairman of the Federation Council Committee of Russia, was spread on YouTube. According to the record, Abashidze and Karasin are talking about the construction of a new highway. Abashidze explains to Karasin that a parallel highway is being built in the direction of Zemo Larsi.
