This morning, the Georgian delegation has left for Switzerland, where it will participate in meetings to resolve conflicts in the Caucasus under the Geneva format. Representatives of Georgia, Russia, Abkhazia, South Ossetia, as well as EU, UN and the U.S will attend the traditional meetings under the Geneva format.

Baramia also noted that the fact on banning teaching of the Georgian children in Abkhazia in their native language will also be discussed.
“All these issues concern the Georgian side and they will be discussed”, – he said.
