Lists of Russian Citizens Wishing to Leave for Russia Compiled in Georgia
The Russian Embassy in Georgia starts compiling lists of the Russian citizens who wish to depart for the homeland, the Embassy said. "The Russian Embassy in Tbilisi informs that Russian citizens can appeal to the Embassy to discuss their wish to return to the homeland," it said.
Russia has suspended transport communications with Georgia since October 3. According to RF Federal Aeronautical Service Alexander Neradko, the suspension is conditioned by Georgia's $3.6 million overdue debt and $176 thousand current debt. Presently Russian citizens can return to Russia via third states - Azerbaijan, Armenia and Ukraine, reported RIA Novosti.
To remind, the relations between the two states tensed after the arrest of Russian officers accused of espionage and terrorism. On Monday the Georgian authorities conveyed four Russian officers to OSCE CiO Karel De Gucht. Meanwhile Russia has applied a number of sanctions against Georgia.
