Georgian Prime Minister, Giorgi Gakharia, who is holding high-level meetings in Brussels, has issued a statement regarding the military confrontation between Azerbaijan and Armenia.

Georgian PM calls on the OSCE Minsk Group co-chairs and international actors to make the most of the available opportunities to end the escalation and resume dialogue.

Giorgi Gakharia pointed out that “further escalation of the situation will have an extremely negative impact on the security of the entire region.”

“Historically, our Azerbaijani and Armenian citizens living in Georgia have always played a great role in the development and strengthening of our country, as well as the entire region. At the same time, their peaceful coexistence is a good example demonstrating that Georgians, Armenians, and Azerbaijanis have the potential to turn the entire South Caucasus into an area of peace and development.

It is our common interest for peace to be established in the region as quickly as possible. Georgia is ready to facilitate this process in any way, including by hosting a meeting of representatives of the sides of the conflict in Tbilisi for the purpose of holding a dialogue,” stressed Georgian PM.
