Statement of the Minister on Ethnic Cleansing

15 აგვისტო 2012

IDP houses and rename Georgian villages located north of the city of Tskhinvali. Such illegal acts continue grave humanitarian law violations and once again attest continuation of the ethnic cleansing campaign by the Russian occupation regime, serving the aim to further solidify severe consequences of the already conducted ethnic cleansing and to erase Georgian trace on the occupied territory. Hence, the Government of Georgia puts the full responsibility for these actions on the Russian side and calls upon international community to react to the fact of continuing ethnic cleansing.
