Russia responds to Patriot Alliance letter about improving Tbilisi-Moscow relations
The Russian government shares its concerns about existing bilateral ties and calls for improvement. According to the Kremlin press service, the letter responded to the address of Georgian Patriots Alliance to Russian President Vladimir Putin, asking for assistance in normalizing relations between Tbilisi and Moscow.
“We share the concerns expressed in the letter about the existing bilateral ties and the call for the improvement of these ties. Russia has always come out in support of constructive relations with Georgia. As it is known, we were not the initiators of their termination,” the Kremlin press service said.
The Kremlin called the appeal of the Georgian Patriots Alliance to the president a clear confirmation that “despite all the efforts of Russophobes and radicals, there are healthy-minded forces in Georgia who want to restore good neighborly relations between the two countries.”
According to the Kremlin press service, the dialogue between Russia and Georgia continues, including in the format of the Geneva talks and at the bilateral level, using the informal dialogue between Karasin and Abashidze.
“Thanks to this, some results have been achieved in the trade and humanitarian fields,” the Kremlin said.
The Georgian Patriots Alliance wrote a letter to Russian President Vladimir Putin a few weeks ago. In the letter, Irma Inashvili talks about the importance of restoring friendly relations with Russia, saying that this is the attitude of the Georgian people, but the government only creates an illusion in the normalization of relations with Russia.
