Russian Foreign Ministry Denies Reports on Reestablishing Diplomatic Relations With Georgia
07:13 GMT 12.06.2024 (Updated: 08:33 GMT 12.06.2024) Since Russia and Georgia broke off diplomatic relations, dialogue between the countries has been maintained through the Geneva discussions.
Reports that Russia and Georgia are engaged in restoring diplomatic relations are misinformation spread by opposition forces of Georgia, the Russian Foreign Ministry told Sputnik on Wednesday.
"We see no point in commenting on various hoaxes circulated by Georgian opposition resources," the ministry said.
Earlier, Georgian opposition TV channel Mtavari.tv reported citing sources that the Russian and Georgian governments are actively working on restoring diplomatic relations.
“The ruling party 'Georgian Dream' and Russia’s leadership are actively working and negotiating on reestablishment of diplomatic ties. The authorities plan to open Georgian embassy in Moscow,” the outlet said.
Georgia is already recruiting diplomats for the Russian embassy, the outlet added.
When Russia and Georgia broke off diplomatic relations, the dialogue between the two countries was maintained through the Geneva discussions and negotiations between Russian Senator Grigory Karasin and Zurab Abashidze, which have taken place in Prague since 2012.
Georgia broke off diplomatic relations with Russia after Moscow recognised Abkhazia and South Ossetia as sovereign states in August 2008.
Earlier, the Georgian parliament passed the law on foreign agents, overriding the presidential veto - a move that drew
harsh criticism from the Western nations. Georgian authorities, however, say that the law fully complies with all basic legal principles and is aimed at revising the activities of non-governmental organizations.
