Breakaway Abkhazia Pledges Support for South Ossetia

Supposedly, South Ossetian breakaway government in Tskhinvali will get assistance from unrecognized pro-Russian republics and from a number of «subjects of the Russian Federation» in the North Caucasus.

North Ossetia, Abkhazia, Transdniestria (de-facto independent pro-Russian area near Moldova, Dniester River region), and Stavropol and Kuban Cossacks (Southern Russia) will come to the rescue to help South Ossetia.

Breakaway Abkhazia Pledges Support for South Ossetia


/ Civil Georgia, Tbilisi / 2004-07-13 14:28:09
Valeri Arshba, Vice-President of unrecognized Abkhaz Republic, said that Sukhumi is closely watching developments in Georgia’s breakaway South Ossetia and that Abkhazia is ready to render any necessary assistance to Tskhinvali.

“We are not going to remain indifferent towards our South Ossetian brothers. We will help them as we can,” the Abkhaz news agency Apsnypress quoted Valeri Arshba as saying on July 12.

He said that an agreement reached between the authorities of the two unrecognized republics envisions “mutual political, economic and military assistance.”
