FRENCH AMBASSADOR VISITS ABKHAZIA
Philippe Lefort met on 16 May in Sukhum with Abkhaz Vice President Raul Khadjimba and Foreign Minister Sergei Shamba, assuring them that France´s withholding of international recognition to the Republic of Abkhazia should not be construed as a mark of disrespect for the Abkhazian People.
Lefort noted the significance of French linguist Georges Dumezil´s research on the now extinct Ubykh language, which was related to Abkhaz.
Lefort was apparently unable to meet with President Sergei Bagapsh and Prime Minister Aleksandr Ankvab, who left on 16 May for talks with Russian officials in Moscow.
