EU Presidency Statement on the signature of the agreements on the joint protection of borders between Russia and the separatist region of Abkhazia and South Ossetia.
The Presidency of the EU is deeply concerned by the signing of the agreements on the joint protection of borders between Russia and the Georgian separatist regions of Abkhazia and South Ossetia, which are in contradiction with the six point agreement of August 12, 2008.
The Presidency of the EU recalls the EU’s full support to the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Georgia in its internationally recognized borders.
The Presidency remains committed and is ready to support every effort with a view to a peaceful and lasting solution to the conflict in Georgia. Security matters should be discussed in relevant international fora, in particular the Geneva discussions, the next session of which will take place on 18-19 May 2009.
