If someone is talking about imposing sanctions on Russia, closing trade relations, we will not do it - Kobakhidze on Stoltenberg

We are not imposing sanctions, but we don't allow sanctions to be circumvented either - this is how the chairman of the "Georgian Dream" responds to the statement of the NATO Secretary General, where Jens Stoltenberg says that the alliance hopes that the non-member allies will respect the sanctions imposed against Russia and will not make it easier for Russia to finance an aggressive war against Ukraine:

"As you know, we have a clear position regarding this topic - we don't impose sanctions, but we don't allow sanctions to be circumvented either. If someone talks about imposing sanctions, completely closing trade and economic relations, of course, we won't do it," Kobakhidze says. The Chairman of the "Dream" quotes Gharibashvili that the European Union trades with Russia in 4 days what Georgia trades in 1 year - "everyone acts in accordance with their own interests and we also act in accordance with national interests" says Kobakhidze.

We expect that non-NATO allies will uphold the sanctions and will not make it easier for Russia to finance and conduct an aggressive war against Ukraine" - the head of the North Atlantic Organization made this statement in Brussels, during a discussion organized by the "German Marshall Fund". According to him, it is important for Georgia to conform to the democratic values, which NATO believes in.
