“The decision of the Strasbourg-based European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) is an important tool for the de-occupation of Georgia,” Tbilisi Mayor Kakha Kaladze said.

According to him, this decision is a breakthrough for Georgia’s position in the international arena. Georgia has never had such a document against Russia yet.

The Strasbourg court has delivered its judgment in the Russia-Georgia August war case on Thursday. According to the Georgian Ministry of Justice, the European Court of Human Rights has admitted Georgia’s request that Russia violated several articles of the European Convention on Human Rights during the August 2008 war.
