EU Envoy Visits Georgia

Georgian Foreign Minister Gela Bezhuashvili met with visiting EU special representative to the South Caucasus Peter Semneby on July 22 to discuss Georgia?s Action Plan in frames of the EU Neighborhood Policy and secessionist conflicts, the Foreign Ministry reported.


Talks were attended by the head of European Commission delegation Torben Holtze and German Ambassador in Georgia Patricia Hildegard Flor (Germany will hold EU Presidency after Finland).


?The Georgian side welcomed the willingness of the European Union to promote restoration of Georgia’s territorial integrity and with that end in view to cooperate actively in the ongoing peace processes,? the Georgian Foreign Ministry?s press release reads.


EU expressed its deep concern regarding the current Russo-Georgian tensions in a statement issued by the Finish Presidency on behalf of the European Union on July 20.


In the statement EU on the one hand noted ?the need to increase the effectiveness of the negotiating and peacekeeping in South Ossetia and Abkhazia,? but on the other hand urged the parties involved ?to make full use of the existing negotiating mechanisms.?
