Asked about the proposed road from Chechnya to Georgia, US Ambassador to Georgia Kelly Degnan said, “before Russia starts talking about roads, projects, or promises like that to Georgia, they should fulfill their obligations under the 2008 ceasefire agreement and withdraw their forces from Georgian territory.”

Ambassador Degnan continued: “Regarding the road, my understanding is this is a project that dates back to the Soviet times, to the 1970s or eighties. I think if you want to judge Russia’s sincerity on any of the promises or statements that they’re making, look at what they’re doing in terms of their obligations under the 2008 agreement. They have not fulfilled any of them.”
