Solana discussed in Abkhazia settlement of Georgian-Abkhazian conflict

Javier Solana, High Commissioner of the European Union on Foreign Policy and Safety, has discussed the issues settling the Georgian-Abkhazian conflict with Abkhazian leaders.

Sergey Bagapsh, President of Abkhazia, welcomed Mr Solana and expressed his readiness for open and constructive dialogue on all issues. In his turn, the EU High Commissioner said that he was for the first, but hopefully not for the last, time in Abkhazia and hoped for fruitful debates of all the accumulated problems.

"We had a wonderful dialogue. I presented the position of the European Union on settlement of the Georgian-Abkhazian conflict. The EU is interested in the progress of the situation in the conflict zone. We wish to help in settling it," Javier Solana told journalists in the briefing after the end of his meeting with the president of Abkhazia.

Touching on the prospects of settling the Georgian-Abkhazian conflict, the EU representative has declared that he saw no solution without participation of Russia. At the same time the diplomat has emphasized that, in the end, the settling of the conflict depends on the parties thereof.
