Baku. Tamara Grigoryeva-APA. "I do not think that Armenia's
voting against the resolution in the UN General Assembly will have
serious influence on our bilateral relations", Chairman of Georgian
Parliament's Commission on Foreign Affairs Konstantin Gabashvili told
APA. He said that Russia had worked much for the voting to fail.
"You know that these countries are closely connected with each
other. That's why Armenia voted against the resolution. Of course,
we regret this, but the main thing is that the document has been
adopted", he said.
Touching upon GUAM member state Moldova's abstaining from the voting,
Konstantin Gabashvili said they understood this.
"Moldova also has special relations with Russia. Pressure was exerted
on this country's ambassador", he said.
Konstantin Gabashvili expressed his gratitude to Azerbaijan for
supporting Georgia.
"I am grateful to Azerbaijan's Foreign Ministry and all Azerbaijani
People for supporting us in this hard work", he said.
