"Georgia and Russia broke off the relations with each other half
a year ago. The crisis had reached to its peak now. I think both
sides should make concessions," said Sabina Freizer, the director of
International Crisis Group South Caucasus Project.
"Russia should remove the sanctions and Georgian president Mikhail
Saakashvili and the presidential administration should stop their
severe statements against Russia. Russia’s sanctions on Georgia are
not economical, but political."
She said Georgia’s intensive dialogues with NATO and probability of
stationing NATO military bases in the country worry Russia.
Sabina Freizer also said that EU hopes it can play a great role
in Armenia-Azerbaijan conflict solution. "I am informed about the
problem and can say that OSCE has proposals able to satisfy both
Azerbaijan and Armenia. The sides can come to agreement only after
thorough discussion of proposals," she said.
