MOSCOW PREPARED TO SUPPORT SUKHUMI-TBILISI RAILWAY RESUMPTION PROCESS
Moscow is prepared to support the resumption of Sukhumi-Tbilisi
railway, but the decision rests with Georgia and Abkhazia, Russian
Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said today after the meeting with
his Abkhazian counterpart Vyacheslav Chirikba, according to TASS
news agency.
According to Lavrov, the Russian side - given the fact that Russian
Railways Company is involved in the operation of the Abkhazian section
of the railway under interstate agreements - is in principle prepared
for such consultations, while the main decision rests with direct
participants of the process - Abkhazia and Georgia. "Armenia is very
interested in this, for good reason," the minister said adding that
Russia is prepared to support the railway's resumption, but first of
all, Sukhumi and Tbilisi should agree on terms.
