Georgia protests against use of Russian phone codes in Abkhazia By Temuri Kiguradze Wednesday, November 18 Tbilisi has responded to its breakaway region Abkhazia replacing its Georgian dialling codes with Russian ones. “The Georgian Foreign Ministry will take all possible measures against the use of Russian phone codes in Abkhazia,” stated Deputy Foreign Minister Nino Kalandadze at a briefing in Tbilisi on Monday.
