There is still a possibility that Georgia could block the Russian bid to join the World Trade Organization (WTO), but Russia hopes for support from other countries on this issue, a senior Kremlin official said on Sunday, RIA Novosti reports.
"The problem with Georgia still remains," presidential economic adviser Arcady Dvorkovich told reporters on the sidelines of the 2010 Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summit in the Japanese city of Yokohama.
"However, all those who support Russia's WTO bid will help us to achieve our goal," Dvorkovich said, reiterating that Russia will most likely join the organization by the end of 2011.
