	Discours_Abashidze
		I stress, in particular, the existence of the conflict between Tbilisi and Sokhumi, as to describe the conflict as "Georgian-Abkhazian" has nothing in common with either history or reality, as this conflict is the result of the politicians currently in power, not of those nations which have suffered due to this fratricidal war.
		I offered to send to Sokhumi, those I held most precious - my two-years old grandchild, children and wife as volunteer hostages in return for guaranteeing the safety of the members of the Abkhazian delegation, which was at the time officially outlawed.
		Therefore, the settlement of a wide-ranging agreement between Sokhumi and Tbilisi must be found within the framework of the territorial integrity of Georgia, including the warranty of legal rights and interests for the small, but multinational population of Abkhazia, and backed up with strong international guarantees.

	Ivlian Haindrava - Issues Note
		It is unfortunate that the Georgian administration has not drafted so far a comprehensive document that clearly outlines the future of Abkhazians in the state of Georgia (as part of the Georgian state).
		I apologize for sounding blunt, but the Sokhumi administration seems to have become fixated on the idea of its independence, despite the fact that everyone in Abkhazia has known for several years now that recognition of independence is impossible, as it would contravene international practice.
		Despite the fact that some of the provisions contained in it have been treated with scepticism both in Tbilisi and Sokhumi, realists saw this document as defining a framework for the task that lies ahead.

		In an open letter to President Saakashvili, the group argued that the government must put aside all references to the potential use of force to resolve the stand-off with Sokhumi, perform an "extremely objective" analysis of the 1992-1993 war with Abkhazia, and negotiate with Abkhazian officials on terms of parity.
		That sense of a permanent impasse still runs strong in the village of Ganmukhuri, a small Georgian settlement along the border with Abkhazia that saw 11 of its villagers kidnapped — reportedly by Abkhazian militia — on the eve of the breakaway region’s presidential elections.
		Though Sokhumi has issued no official comment on the incident, villagers and the government in Tbilisi maintain that the incident was staged to convince voters in the predominantly Georgian district of Gali in Abkhazia to keep away from the polls.
