Lukashenka Eager to Bring Georgia Back to CIS, Georgia Not Fond of Such Perspective
Aliaksandr Lukashenka said in an interview that he is going to initiate Georgia’s return to the Commonwealth of Independent States.
«I suppose, that the next CIS summit is going to be held in Minsk. So I will initiate returning Georgia to the CIS by all means, this will be my function [in case Minsk hosts the CIS summit].»
However, Georgia is not really eager to return to the Commonwealth. The spokesperson for the opposition bloc that won Georgia’s parliamentary elections earlier this week has dismissed as absurd Aliaksandr Lukashenka’s remarks about the ex-Soviet country’s possible return to the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS), BelaPAN informs.
«Georgia’s European integration remains our main, unchanging and one of the most important goals at present, the Belarusian president’s statement is unserious and absurd,» Georgian Dream spokesperson Maya Pandzhikidze said in an interview with the Russian news agency RIA Novosti on October 4.
When asked whether the matter was discussed by the bloc’s members, Ms. Pandzhikidze said that it was «not worth attention and comments.»
