Fact-Finding Trip to Panksi Gorge
A group of representatives of foreign diplomatic missions in Georgia and media visited villages located in Pankisi gorge on October 29 to, as organizers said, ascertain that Russia’s allegations in respect of the gorge were groundless.
MP Giorgi Targamadze, leader of parliamentary minority and of Christian-Democratic Movement (CDM), whose party led this campaign of fact-finding trip, said the move was a counter-measure to Russia’s allegations that Georgia was helping militants to infiltrate into Russia from its territory.
“For Georgians it is clear that the Russian allegations are groundless… But we should let foreigners see with their own eyes situation on the ground. We should counter Russia’s disinformation campaign with true information and the truth, which is on the ground,” MP Giorgi Targamadze said.
