TBILISI. – Tbilisi dismissed information, which was disclosed by
WikiLeaks, that Georgia continues to open its airspace for transporting
military cargo for Armenia.

“Tbilisi had an agreement with Russia on using the airspace. However,
the document was denounced by the Georgian parliament,” Georgian
Deputy FM Nino Kalandazde told a briefing on Monday.

Kalandadze said that information spread by WikiLeaks should be
approached carefully, as its reliability is unknown. The fact itself
does not correspond to reality. Russia for several times turned to
Georgia to open its airspace but Georgia did not agree. The last time
Russia offered it, was in 2008. Currently the agreement with Russia
is denounced, Georgia Online reports.

The scandalous cable is dated back to February, 2010. The cable is
classified by the U.S. Ambassador to Georgia John Bass in Washington.

He informs that Georgia continues to open its airspace for transporting
military cargo for Armenia.
