TBILISI FOR EXPANDING OSCE MONITORING ON RUSSIAN-GEORGIAN BORDER

Georgia puts a question of expanding are of OSCE monitoring on Dagestan and Ingush areas of Russian-Georgian border, besides the Chechen area, Kaha Sikharulidze, the director of department for public relations and information of Georgian Foreign Ministry, said. This item is being examined in the Headquarters of OSCE, in Vienna.

The expansion of OSCE monitoring is connected with additional financing, however this problem could be positively solved in the future, Sikharulidze mentioned. The diplomat considers that the expansion of OSCE monitoring on Russian-Georgian border would put off many accusations of the Russian side on alleged moving of the Chechen fighters through the border.
