The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Abkhazia expects that there will be a realization of obvious facts in Georgia, the result of which will be a revision of the political course regarding Abkhazia

Commentary by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Abkhazia.

Sukhum. May 14. Apsnypress. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Abkhazia drew attention to reaction of the Georgian Foreign Ministry regarding the information that Abkhazia and South Ossetia were marked on the TikTok social network as independent states. The Georgian Foreign Ministry said it was “working on a matter,” since the agency’s top priority is “protecting the sovereignty and territorial integrity of the country.”  

 Abkhazian Foreign Ministry comments:
 
 “This kind of bewilderment is caused by the inadequate reaction of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Georgia to information indicated on the social network, which objectively reflects the real situation on the political map of the South Caucasus.
 
 This case once again eloquently testifies that loud statements about the need to establish dialogue and find ways to normalize relations serve only as a screen to cover Georgia’s real foreign policy towards full-scale international isolation of Abkhazia. Even such an unreasonable pretext as the mentioned case with the TikTok social network caused urgent activation of the Georgian Foreign Ministry to block “harmful” information.
 
 Based on such flawed logic, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Georgia probably intends to censor any international information resource on which information that is "inconvenient" for Tbilisi will appear. In this connection, a logical question arises: is such a practice acceptable from the moral side and from the point of view of common sense?
 
 Along with this, it should be noted that sometimes economic entities or organizations are much more aware of existing political realities than individual states.
 
 We expect that a similar realization of obvious facts will occur in Georgia, the result of which will be a revision of the political course towards the Republic of Abkhazia. ”
