Romania Accepts Georgia’s Neutral Travel Documents

Romania became eleventh country to recognize Georgia’s neutral travel documents designed for residents of breakaway Abkhazia and South Ossetia, the Georgian State Ministry for Reintegration said on May 2.

It said that Romania notified Georgia that it would start accepting neutral travel documents starting from May 15.

Other countries that have so far agreed to accept these neutral travel documents, slammed by Moscow and authorities in the breakaway regions, are: Bulgaria; Estonia; Israel; Japan; Latvia, Lithuania; Poland; Slovakia; the Czech Republic and the United States.

Only 27 such documents have been issued by Georgia since it was introduced in 2011, according to the Georgian State Ministry for Reintegration.

Moscow slammed Georgia’s neutral travel documents as “provocative” and Sokhumi said it was “a trap” through which Tbilisi “wants to lure” Abkhazians back to its fold.
