Грузия-Абхазия-Южная Осетия обменялиь заключенными

В рамках трехсторонних договоренностей, которые стороны назвали "важным гуманитарным актом" и результатом "прагматического сотрудничества", грузинские власти освободили 4 заключенных в обмен абхазская сторона и юго-осетинская передали Тбилиси 12 задержанных.

Обмен пленными между грузинской, абхазской и осетинской стороной состоялся на Ингури, на административной грание между Грузией и оккупированной Абхазией.

По данным Офиса государственного министра Грузии по вопросам примирения и гражданского равенства, абхазская и юго-осетинская стороны передали Грузии 13 пленных, "которые находилсь в заключении в течение 6-7 лет".

В свою очередь Грузия передала де-факто властям Цхинвальского региона 4 заключенных.

Абхазские и юго-осетинские де-факто власти арестовали 13 человек за незаконное пересечение так называемой границы в сепаратистских регионах, в то время как грузинская сторона задержала 4 человек за участие в теракте, который произошел в Гори 1 февраля 2005 года, в результате которого погибли трое грузинских полицейских и были ранены более двух десятков человек, за что задержанные были приговорены к пожизненному тюремному сроку.

И грузинские и юго-осетинские чиновники, присутствующие во время обмена заключенными, поблагодарили абхазскую сторону за то, что обмен стал возможным.

"Я очень благодарен югоосетинской стороне, и в особенности абхазской стороне за сотрудничество", сказал государственный министр Грузии по вопросам примирения, Паата Закареишвили, во время разговора с абхазскими журналистами в присутствии министров иностранных дел двух отколовшихся регионов.

"Благодарен сотрудничеству осетинской и в особенности абхазской стороны. Абхазы очень хорошо поработали, особенно господин Рауль Хаджимба. Хочу отметить его принципиальный подход. Это очень важно в контексте миротворческого процесса. Мы хотим начать новый этап грузино-абхазских и грузино-осетинских отношений, и гуманитарные вопросы всегда находятся во главе угла. Я доволен процессом, хотя процесс шел очень долго, несколько месяцев," - сказал Закареишвили.

Министр иностранных дел сепаратистской Абхазии, Вячеслав Чирикба, приветствовал обмен заключенными, назвав его "прекрасным примером прагматичного сотрудничества всех сторон."

"Это заслуга деликатных переговоров в Женеве. Все началось оттуда," - заявил Чирикба.

В совместном заявлении, позже в тот же день, сопредседатели Женевских переговоров приветствовали одновременное освобождение заключенных в Тбилиси, Сухуми и Цхинвали в качестве "значительного гуманитарного акта".

"Взаимопонимание в освобождении задержанных открывает хорошие перспективы для дальнейшей работы," говорится в совместном заявлении ЕС, ОБСЕ и посланников ООН.

Germany accuses Russia of cyberattacks and disinformation campaign

The German government holds Russia responsible for a cyberattack on German air traffic control, and for targeted disinformation campaigns before the last federal election. According to the German Foreign Office in Berlin, the incidents could be clearly attributed to the Russian military intelligence service, the GRU. In response, the Russian ambassador to Berlin was summoned to the Foreign Ministry. "We have been observing a massive increase in threatening hybrid activities by Russia for some time now," a spokesperson for the Foreign Ministry stated. These range from disinformation campaigns and espionage to cyberattacks and sabotage attempts. The aim is to divide society, sow distrust, and undermine confidence in democratic institutions. The spokesperson added that with these actions, Russia is "very concretely threatening our security, not only through its war of aggression against Ukraine, but also here in Germany."  The Foreign Ministry spokesperson explained that the cyberattack on air traffic control in August 2024 was clearly attributed to the hacker collective "APT28," known as "Fancy Bear," and to the responsibility of the Russian military intelligence service, the GRU. Furthermore, it could now be "conclusively stated" that Russia had attempted "to influence and destabilize both the last Federal election and the ongoing internal affairs of the Federal Republic of Germany." There was "absolutely irrefutable evidence" for this". The so-called "Storm 1516" campaign, which has been running since 2024, is allegedly backed by "reliable information" that the Moscow-based think tank "Center for Geopolitical Expertise" is behind it. The Center is also said to be supported by Russian military intelligence. Its primary aim is to influence democratic elections in the West. (Click the image to read more).
