Why I Apologize To Abkhaz People
29 December 2009

Choice for Georgia: Georgian Chauvinism or Abkhazia?
Ucha Nanuashvili, Initiator of “Sorry” Campaign
Executive Director of the Human Rights Center

“Sorry” Campaign was launched in March of 2007. It is not easy to apologize as well as to accept an apology.

The aim of the Sorry Campaign is to change the dynamics and direction of the relationships that have been established between Georgians and Abkhazians during recent years. The “Sorry” Campaign is not in any way connected with politics; it is a movement against war, as we consider that there is no alternative to peaceful dialogue and mutual settlement of the conflict.

The Campaign envisages the reestablishment of confidence between Georgian and Abkhazian people and to break through the informational vacuum. We want to encourage people to think about the horrors of war ...

STATEMENT BY PRESIDENT SERGEI BAGAPSH IN RESPONSE TO SENATOR LUGAR

STATEMENT BY PRESIDENT SERGEI BAGAPSH IN RESPONSE TO SENATOR LUGAR

U.S. Senator Richard Lugar (R-IN) will reportedly issue a report next week calling for the United States to rearm Georgia. Such a decision would jeopardize the fragile peace we have in this region. I urge him to re-evaluate his stance.

In considering the Senator’s recommendation, Americans must not forget Georgian President Saakashvili‘s history of recklessness and irresponsibility. In August 2008, he broke international laws and launched an attack on civilians in South Ossetia, using munitions supplied by the U.S. and other western nations. Those actions, which led to hundreds of deaths and thousands of displaced refugees, were confirmed by a respected EU commission in October. We have proof that he was prepared to launch a similar attack on our civilians. ...

ANKARA – Hürriyet Daily News

A report launched late Wednesday by an Ankara-based think tank highlighted the need for engagement policies toward Abkhazia.

“The aim of this report is to question isolation policy and promote engagement by looking to the region as an economic entity,” said Burcu Gültekin Punsmann, the lead author of the report “Abkhazia for the Integration of the Black Sea,” which was drafted by the Economic Policy Research Foundation of Turkey, or TEPAV.

Economic sanctions are policy tools used by governments to constrain business activity across borders with intended policy outcomes, according to the report, which underlined that cooperation was the key factor in ...

Of the Two Would-Be Nations, Only Abkhazia Has any Chance of Making It as a Truly Sovereign State

Nauru, a Pacific island nation of just 11,000 people, this week became the fourth country to recognize the independence of the break-away Georgian provinces of Abkhazia and South Ossetia. While Russia was accused of buying Nauru’s loyalty with $50 million in aid, South Ossetian President Eduard Kokoity predicted some 10 other states would soon follow Nauru’s example. So who else is prepared to take the Russian shilling, and is Russia willing to pay? ...

ABKHAZIA FOR THE INTEGRATION OF THE BLACK SEA

The break-up of the Soviet Union had far-reaching consequences on Turkey’s close neighborhood. The business minded population of the Turkish Back Sea cities, helped by the geographical and cultural proximity, started penetrating into their rediscovered neighborhood. In the 90’s, Abkhazia rose as a major destination for people and commodities originating from the Turkish Black Sea coast. A bus connection was established between Trabzon and Sukhum. Some 3000 Turkish businessmen, most of them of ethnic Abkhazian origin, left in the early 90’s for Sukhum. The establishment of a direct maritime connection between Sukhum and Trabzon in 1994 sustained a continuous flow of passengers. A ferry called Ritza operates twice a week between Trabzon and Sukhum till 1996. The ferry ...
