On 7 August 2008, Russia, in blatant violation of the International Law, intruded in Georgia and launched a military aggression, triggering a short but devastating war.
Glory to the heroes who sacrificed lives to defend Georgia!
107 States supported the #UNGA Res. on #Georgia | IDPs —with clear message: The ethnically cleansed population from 🇷🇺-occupied regions of 🇬🇪 must be guaranteed the right to return to their homes. 🙏 Thank you to all supporters for standing up for justice, dignity, and int. law.
So-called elections in #Russia-occupied Abkhazia reg of #Georgia is yet another futile attempt to legitimize so-called independence & results of ethnic cleansing
Int’l community does not recognize these “elections” & will never accept attempts of forceful change of 🇬🇪 borders
A flight from Moscow arrived at the Sokhumi airport in #Russia-occupied Abkhazia region of #Georgia 🇬🇪 - the occupying power’s yet another step towards the #annexation of GEO’s integral province
This is a blatant violation of int’l law, @ICAO rules & GEO legislation by RUS
🇬🇪 | It’s a truly magical evening in Tbilisi, as tens of thousands from various interest groups and communities march together, uniting on Rustaveli Avenue in front of the parliament to demand new elections and once again support the country’s pro-Western path.
@HelsinkiComm@RepJoeWilson@RepCohen Thanks, but these statements are no longer enough. People are trampled both physically and morally. We need more effective support 🇬🇪🇪🇺🇺🇸
At today's #UNSC open debate, Deputy Foreign Minister H.E. @TotladzeKhatuna spoke about importance of UNSC's WPS agenda & measures of 🇬🇪 for women empowerment. Described challenges women face in 🇬🇪's rgns occupied by 🇷🇺. Expressed 🇬🇪's committment to promote #WPS agenda.
Stressed on the rights of IDPs and refugees forcibly displaced from🇷🇺occupied 🇬🇪 regions, due 2 ethnic cleansing by🇷🇺; urge Russia to fulfill intl. obligations & comply to ECHR judgement, incl. IDP return.

RUS wants #Georgia to sign a non-use of force NUF agreement with so-called republics of abkhazia & south ossetia
In fact, it’s RUS that has been violating 🇪🇺 EU-brokered 2008 Ceasefire Agreement. It’s RUS that refuses to reciprocate & undertake the NUF obligation vis-à-vis 🇬🇪
