Georgia insists it will not participate in 3+3 format

3 January 2022

In an interview with the Turkish newspaper Daily Sabah, Georgia's Ambassador to Turkey, George Janjgava, said on Monday (3 January) that his country will not participate in the next 3+3 Caucasus platform meeting to be held in Turkey.

“Georgia will definitely not attend the 3+3 meeting,” Janjgava told Daily Sabah.

Russia last month hosted the inaugural meeting of the regional platform. However, Tbilisi refuses to attend, citing Russian aggression towards the ex-Soviet nation.

Janjgava underlined that Georgia sees both Turkey and Azerbaijan as “our strategic partners” and views Armenia as a "historical and good neighbour" in a neighbourhood also home to Iran.

“But Russia is a country which is occupying 20% of Georgian territory,” the ambassador strongly emphasised.

Trump still wants Greenland. "We have to have it", he insists.

Donald Trump still wants Greenland. "We have to have it", the US president insists. He has sparked a fresh row with Denmark after appointing a special envoy to Greenland.   In response to a question from the BBC about the new role of Jeff Landry, the Republican governor of Louisiana, Trump said the US needed Greenland for "national protection" and that "we have to have it". Trump specifically mentioned Chinese and Russian ships as potential threats in the nearby seas. Greenland, home to about 57,000 people, has had extensive self-government since 1979, though defence and foreign policy remain in Danish hands. While most Greenlanders favour eventual independence from Denmark, opinion polls show overwhelming opposition to becoming part of the US. (click the image to read the full story).
