Kvirikashvili: Georgia hopes for normalization of relations with Russia

Georgia’s Prime Minister Giorgi Kvirikashvili said at the UN General Assembly in New York that tensions in relations between Tbilisi and Moscow have eased but called for more efforts in this direction.

"We have been seeking a workable solution with Russia. Tangible progress was reached in reducing tensions, but we have not received an answer to all the steps," he said.

Kvirikashvili explained that Georgia has been looking for an acceptable solution to issue on Abkhazia and South Ossetia with Russia.
