The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Georgia relaesed the statment regrading the situiation oin the village of Perevi, Sachkhere region.’Regarding the situation in the village Perevi of Satchkhere RegionRussian Federation continues to be in serious violation of obligations it has undertaken by the six-point cease-fire agreement, brokered by the European Union. They continue to occupy territories outside conflict zones, in particular - Upper Abkhazia, Akhalgori, Village of Perevi – areas unoccupied prior to the august invasion. Instead of withdrawal of occupying forces to the positions ex-ante war, the Russian Federation has increased its military presence inside of both conflict zones.
The most recent alarming development is that Russians forces are currently in the process of handing over the checkpoints in the village of Perevi to the criminal militias of the proxy regime of the Tskhinvali region. This development increases the risk of confrontation and makes security of the village even more volatile, which might result in the displacement and property loss of the residents of Perevi and a new wave of ethnic cleansings.
Russian Federation has undertaken the obligation to withdraw from Perevi and other territories of Georgia. Until the withdrawal, Russian forces are in effective control of those areas and have full responsibility for actions of criminal militias of proxy regimes.
Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Georgia calls upon the international community and in particular observers from the OSCE and the EU Monitoring Mission not to allow new wave of ethnic cleansing.
