International Court of Justice ruling concerns Kosovo issue only,
emphasizing its uniqueness, Deputy Foreign Minister of Georgia
Alexander Nalbandov stated.
As he stressed at news conference in Tbilisi, Hague court ruling is
non-biding, aimed to stress Kosovo case uniqueness. "Georgia, however,
was occupied, which makes any discussion of autonomy demand legitimacy
for Abkhazia and South Ossetia with half a million Georgian refugees
pointless," Deputy Foreign Minister pointed out.
"ICJ analyzes suchlike cases, founding resolutions on territorial
integrity principle, rather than people's right to self-determination.
Hague court will not pass a resolution on the legitimacy of
occupied Georgian territory independence," the diplomat believes,
PanARMENIAN.Net correspondent reported from Tbilisi.
