Lavrov: Georgia Not Ready for Progress in Bilateral Ties

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov blamed Georgia on February 15 for the standstill which currently persists in bilateral ties between Georgia and Russia.  
 
?During the talks in Tbilisi [on February 10-11] we felt that the Georgian side is not ready to advance some issues, and has even stepped back ? on several others,? the news agency RIA Novosti quotes Lavrov as saying on February 15.


?I hope that my forthcoming visit to Georgia [scheduled for February 18] will help clarify some issues and make progress in our relationship,? Lavrov added.
 
During the talks in Tbilisi Russia and Georgia failed once again to make a breakthrough in negotiations over the pullout of two Russian military bases currently operating in Georgia. The sides also failed to agree on a finalized comprehensive framework agreement.
