Journalist Giorgi Kanashvili and historian Dato Jishkariani in Tbilisi discuss the events and circumstances that influenced relations between the Georgian and Abkhaz communities since the 19th and 20th centuries.
Vano Abramashvili: I think that we can talk with the Abkhaz even under the conditions of occupation. This simply requires political will and the correct formats.
Tornike Sharashenidze: First and foremost, both sides must acknowledge their mistakes and crimes. After this step, all other processes will proceed more easily.
