Georgia has requested Azerbaijan to release 415 freight carriages
detained on the border.

The Georgian side has said it is ready to issue a written document
guaranteeing that the consignments are not bound for Armenia, Deputy
Prime Minister Abbas Abbasov told local ANS TV channel.

Abbasov said that he is in touch with the Georgian Prime Minister over
the phone and the latter had repeatedly requested to release the
carriages. Tbilisi aspires to continue co-operating with Azerbaijan
without hurting bilateral relations, the Azeri Deputy Prime Minister
added.
