Georgian parliamentary minority demanded explanations from Foreign
Minister Maia Panjikidze regarding her recent remarks on Karabakh.
MP Akakiy Minashvili said foreign minister is incompetent to do her
job and her remarks are embarrassing Georgia.
"The statement on Karabakh made in Lithuania raised questions about the
prime minister's visit to Yerevan. We also remember the hasty statement
before premier's visit to Baku," Gruziya Online quotes Minashvili.
In his turn, Prime Minister Ivanishvili refused to comment on
Azerbaijani reports regarding Panjikidze's remarks on Karabakh. The
reports mentioned Panjikidze allegedly said "resolution of
Karabakh conflict is possible only based on territorial integrity
of Azerbaijan."
Ivanishvili said foreign minister will return to Georgian on Thursday
and will comment on the situation.
Meanwhile, Georgian and Armenian media reported that during the
meeting in Lithuania, Panjikidze noted "she respects territorial
integrity of Azerbaijan" but did not mention Karabakh.
