Giorgy Margvelashvili's election as Georgian President has increased
chances for the restart of the Abkhazia railroad, Director of the
Oriental Studies Institute of the National Academy of Sciences of
Armenia Ruben Safrastyan told journalists on Thursday.
He does not expect drastic changes in Georgia's foreign policy but
does not rule out improvements in Georgian-Russian relations and
possible agreement on the restart of the railroad.
As regards Georgia's future relations with Azerbaijan and Turkey,
Safrastyan said that Marhvelashvili has not yet specified his policy
on those countries, so, there will hardly be any serious changes in
Georgia's relations with them especially as the real ruler in Georgia
now is not the President but the Prime Minister.
