STATEMENT BY ABKHAZ PRESIDENT SERGEI BAGAPSH ON GEORGIA’S ATTEMPTS TO THWART NGO WORK IN THE REPUBLIC OF ABKHAZIA
The Georgia State

interference in our internal affairs – could unnecessarily disrupt NGO
humanitarian services from 12 international organizations to thousands

transport infrastructure: construction of our airport and its
operation, maritime traffic, roads, railways… These are the directions
in which any economy should move, and Abkhazia is not an exception
here. We signed an agreement on the Emergencies Ministry activities –
rescue work on land and ... >> full artcle...

Ardzinba, who became the first president of Abkhazia after a bloody
conflict with Georgia in early 1990s, died in a Moscow hospital

Ardzinba was born in Abkhazia and spend most of his life there.
During the final years of the Soviet Union, he was a politician and a
