The Co-Chairs of the Geneva International Discussions (GID) strongly urge all the GID participants to set aside differences and to refrain from actions that could lead to increased tension – reads the press communique.

“The focus should be on collaboration, for the good of all people in the region and against the common threat of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The reported erection of signs along the South Ossetian dividing line today predictably contributes to a tense atmosphere on the ground and rids the local people of their livelihoods.

In the face of the current global challenge of COVID-19, requiring joint approaches and co-operation amongst all, we hereby repeat our call on all participants to avoid provocative measures and focus on improving the situation of the conflict-affected population,” Co-Chairs of GID said.

Russian occupational forces carried out illegal borderisation works near Tatktisdziri village, Kareli district of Shida Karli region of Georgia on April 17.
