The parties exchanged their views on the current situation surrounding the South Ossetian and Abkhazian conflicts and future prospects.
The meeting was held in the run-up to a new round of multilateral talks between Russia, Georgia, the semi-recognized republics of Abkhazia and South Ossetia and international mediators.
