Georgia
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, what steps he is taking to support the territorial integrity of Georgia.
Answered by Stephen Doughty
I reaffirmed my resolute support for Georgia's independence, sovereignty, and territorial integrity within its internationally recognised borders, both to the Georgian Ambassador on 18 September and to Foreign Minister Darchiashvili on 9 October. We continue to support Georgian sovereignty through multilateral statements lobbying on behalf of Georgia's UN Human Rights Council resolution on Internally Displaced Persons, and by investing on the ground in community reconciliation. I also made clear to the Ambassador and Foreign Minister our support for Georgia to meet the aspirations of its population for a Euro-Atlantic path, and raised serious concerns about recent developments and rhetoric.
