This call is not serious for us - the only way to restore territorial integrity is a peaceful one, and, of course, there can be no talk of any other agreement or document, - Prime Minister Irakli Kobakhidze told journalists, answering a question about the statement of the Russian Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Maria Zakharova.

According to him, such calls are completely unacceptable for them.

“Of course, we are not ready [to sign such an agreement]. This call is not serious for us. As for non-aggression, we declare the only thing - the only way to restore territorial integrity is a peaceful way, and, of course, there can be no talk of any other agreement or document. Zakharova says something, Kubilius says something, you should not follow their statements. I think Kubilius is even worse than Zakharova. Kubilius is a disaster. Kubilius is directly hostile to our national interests, he has done nothing but hostility to the Georgian people for all these years. I am talking specifically about Kubilius, who has been hostile to our country for so many years. Such calls are completely unacceptable for us. Neither direct nor indirect recognition of the so-called independence will be possible from our side, therefore, any call that hints at this is categorically unacceptable for us,” the Prime Minister said.

For information, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova stated that “the dialogue between Abkhazia, South Ossetia and Georgia may move forward given Tbilisi’s recognition of the fact of aggression against Tskhinvali.”

According to her, the Georgian authorities’ recognition of mistakes and the aggression carried out is a necessary condition for reconciliation.

According to Zakharova, the conclusion of a legally binding agreement on the non-use of force against Georgia-occupied Abkhazia and Tskhinvali remains among the main priorities of the negotiation process. Zakharova noted that Russia is ready to facilitate these processes.
