Georgia Wants Re-Opening Russia WTO Accession Talks

The Georgian government has decided to re-open bilateral market-access negotiations with Moscow in frames of Russia?s WTO accession talks, the Georgian Foreign Ministry said on July 14.


The Georgian side said that Russia has violated the May, 2004 protocol on conclusion of bilateral market-access negotiations through banning imports of Georgian wines and spirits, as well as mineral waters.

Tbilisi has also complained that operation of two illegal border crossing points ? one in breakaway South Ossetia (Roki Tunnel) and another on in breakaway Abkhazia (Gantiadi) is also a violation of the protocol signed by the two countries in May, 2004. The Ministry of Economy will be in charge of negotiations with Russia.
