Georgia: EU does not recognise constitutional and legal framework of so-called parliamentary elections in Abkhazia

The European Union does not recognise the constitutional and legal framework of the so-called parliamentary elections that took place in the Georgian breakaway region of Abkhazia on 12 March 2022, EU Ambassador to Georgia Carl Hartzell has said.

Hartzell reminded that the European Union supports the territorial integrity and sovereignty of Georgia, as recognised by international law.

“The EU will continue to pursue its policy of non-recognition and engagement. The EU Special Representative for the South Caucasus and the Crisis in Georgia remains fully mobilised in this regard,” said Hartzell.
