 The meeting discussed issues of further development of relations between Abkhazia and the Abkhaz diaspora in Turkey.
 
 "In light of the complications of Russian-Turkish relations, we discussed the main challenges in our relations. There is a huge diaspora in Turkey and we can not lose contact with them. We must develop a strategy to consolidate and position our people. One of our main tasks - not to lose the set communication with our people in Turkey ", - said the first deputy prime minister.
 
 In addition, the meeting discussed the issue of Abkhazian passports.
 
 "We must develop this concept, so as not to create problems with the issuance of Abkhaz passports. Some received them by their restored surnames. But under international law a person can have two names. We need a liner or a separate agreement, which would indicate that the man regained his name. Thereby freeing him from the difficulties in the transition across the border", - Shamil Adzynba.
 
 The head of the Federation of Abkhaz cultural centers in Turkey Ahmet Hapat said: "Today the relations between Turkey and the Russian Federation are in a state of stress. It is in our interests to improve them over time. We will do everything possible not to lose touch with our people".
 
 He added that representatives of Abkhaz Diaspora met with the Government of the Republic of Turkey and the Russian Ambassador to Turkey on the settlement of the conflict of Russian and Turkish sides.
 
 "We hope that in the future relations between the two countries will be improved", - stressed Hapat.
 
 The meeting also discussed the creation of a program to communicate to the younger generation.
 
 "We have to fasten relations and in terms of youth communication. Next year we create a program to communicate with our youth. Every year, at least one hundred representatives of the Abkhazian youth living in Turkey should come to their historic homeland, to better integrate into local society", - said Adzynba.
