Sooner or later, the Russian Federation will have to revoke its illegal decision made in 2008, when it recognized the so-called independence of integral regions of Georgia, and to de-occupy our territories,- the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Georgia releases the statement.

According to the statement, Georgia continues constructive and active participation in the Geneva international talks to achieve concrete progress on major issues.

The Russian leadership undertook an international obligation on withdrawal of troops from Georgia on August 12, 2008, and must fully comply with the EU-brokered ceasefire agreement.

Georgia continues constructive and active participation in the Geneva international negotiations in order to make tangible progress on the main issues such as the Russian Federation’s commitment to the disuse of force and creation of international security mechanisms in the occupied regions, as well as safe return of IDPs to their homes – reads the statement.
