House of Representatives to consider issue of South Ossetia and Abkhazia

The issue of the recognition of independence of South Ossetia and Abkhazia will be considered by the House of Representatives of the National Assembly of Belarus when it is added on the agenda. The statement has been made by the new speaker elect Uladzimir Andreichanka. According to him, “we will consider [the issue] when it is added”. Andreichanka noted that “the people’s opinion should be taken into account in this case”.

Let us remind you that the Parliament of Abkhazia asked Belarusian colleagues to recognize the republic’s independence on October 13. However, the appeal was lost somewhere in Belarusian corridors of power.
