“I can only imagine how desperate the Ukrainian government would have been to take such an extreme measure,” Georgia’s former foreign minister Maia Panjikidze has stated in response to the recent decision of the Ukrainian president to recall his country’s ambassador to Georgia ‘for consultations. ‘
“This is an absolutely extreme measure. It is hard to imagine how the spoiled relationship between the two friendly nations can be restored,” Panjikidze said.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has recalled the country’s Ambassador to Georgia Igor Dolgov earlier today ‘for consultations’ after Tbilisi refused to join sanctions against Russia and Georgian volunteers were not able to fly to Ukraine yesterday from Tbilisi International Airport.
