The Presidency of the Council of the European Union takes note of the
decision taken by the Russian authorities to recognise the independence
of Abkhazia and South Ossetia. The Presidency strongly condemns this
decision, which is contrary to the principles of Georgia's
independence, sovereignty and territorial integrity, recognised by the
United Nations Charter, the Final Act of the Conference on Security and
Cooperation in Europe and the relevant Security Council resolutions. In
this context, the Presidency strongly recalls its commitment to the
principle of Georgia's territorial integrity within its internationally
recognised borders. The Presidency calls for a political solution to
the conflicts in Georgia and will examine from this viewpoint the
consequences of the Russian decision.
