Gakharia calls on the OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairs and international actors to make the most of their opportunities in order to end the escalation of the conflict and resume dialogue.

According to him, Georgia has good-neighborly relations with both countries.

“The Azerbaijanis and Armenians historically living in Georgia have always played a significant role in the development and strengthening of our country, as well as the region as a whole. At the same time, their peaceful coexistence is a good example of the fact that Georgians, Armenians and Azerbaijanis have the potential to turn the entire South Caucasus into a zone of peace and development,” the prime minister said.
