The Georgian Ministry of Economic Development tries to clarify how the
Abkhazian "Amtsa" adjika appeared in the Armenian consumers’ market. As
"Interfax" agency reports on this concern a representative of the
Georgian Ministry commented on the problem. "It’s not excluded that
the production is smuggled and is produced in Armenia. At present we
try to get the details by the help of the Foreign Ministry, after it an
official statement will be declared", – mentioned the representative.

Russian "News.ru" informs that it is the first case recorded when the
goods produced in Abkhazia officially appear in the Armenian consumers’
market. There are no political and economic relations between Armenia
and Abkhazia, although a great number of Armenians live in Abkhazia.

especially in Moscow supermarkets is realized without any obstacle.
