TBILISI. – It is quite natural that Georgian FM touches upon the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, Georgian expert Zurab Abashidze told Armenian News-NEWS.am. His comments came after Georgian FM Grigol Vashadze said that the new war in Karabakh will bury sovereignty and independence of all three South Caucasus states.

Abashidze stated that he shares Vashadze’s viewpoint on possible escalation consequences in the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict zone.

As for Georgia’s approaches on the issue, the expert said that Tbilisi preserves friendly relations both with Yerevan and Baku. It is a constructive approach, which is perceived naturally both in Armenia and Azerbaijan. Georgia truly desires that Armenian and Azerbaijani sides settle the conflict, which will bring forth peace and stability in the region.

 As the agency informed earlier, the Georgian FM Vashadze has said in an interview with Zerkalo that the new war in Karabakh will bury sovereignty and independence of the three South Caucasus states.
