/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The Abkhaz leadership rejected
Georgia President’s proposals on `unlimited autonomy’.
Abkhazia’s Foreign Minister Sergei Shamba said talks
about a common state with Georgia are inadmissible.
Sergey Bagapsh, the Abkhaz leader, said Tbilisi’s new
proposals were part of its `propaganda ahead of the
NATO summit’ in Bucharest.
`Georgia tries to portray itself as a peace-loving
nation in the eyes of the NATO, where it aspires,’
Bagapsh said. `Saakashvili’s proposals are
unacceptable for us and we reject them.’
`It is impossible having undeclared war against
Abkhazia yesterday, involving terrorists acts and
today becoming a peace-loving politician.’
President Saakashvili laid out on March 28 Tbilisi’s
proposals to Sukhumi, including `unlimited autonomy’
joint free economic zone, representation in the
central authorities and the post of vice-president
with the right to veto Abkhaz-related decisions.
"I offer the Abkhaz people the right to veto any
amendments to the Constitution and laws of Georgia
aimed at preventing the adoption of resolutions that
could infringe upon the right to the development of
the Abkhaz language, literature, culture and the
Abkhaz nation’s unique identity," he said, Civil
Georgia reports.
