Restoration of railway via Abkhazia raises a number of questions,
former Georgian Deputy FM Sergi Kapanadze said.
He believes that Armenia and Russia are more interested in the
initiative than Georgia.
`Restoration of railroad traffic via Abkhazia will have a positive
economic effect for everyone. But, current political and economic
situation is not suitable for the reopening of railroad,' said
Kapanadze, who is heading Georgia's Reform Association.
Economic impact on Georgia is unclear, as it may affect cargo
transportation from Poti port and via Baku-Akhalkalak-Kars transit
road, he said.
