Presidents of Ukraine, Lithuania and Poland call for settlement of Georgia-Russia crisis

October 5, Victor Yushchenko of Ukraine, Lech Kaczynski of Poland and Valdas Adamkus of Lithuania appreciate international efforts aimed at constructively resolving the Russia-Georgia crisis, the president press office informs.

“We appreciate the efforts by the OSCE Chairman-in-Office, Belgian Foreign Minister Karol De Gucht, Finnish Foreign Minister Erkki Tuomioja, whose country presides in the European Union, as well as by other representatives of the international community, to resolve the problem. We are convinced that their involvement can be the major factor in the settlement of conflicts in Georgia to ensure its sovereignty, security and territorial integrity,” they said in a joint statement.

The Presidents said they were worried about the situation in Georgia, calling on Russia and Georgia “… to refrain from mutual accusations and start negotiations.” They believe threats and reluctance to compromise can only lead to the deterioration of the conflict.

“Every conflict can be settled through negotiations, in which we are ready to participate asmediators,” they said.
