Georgia’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs categorically denied reports that Armenia’s president is upset at Georgia’s president, which is why he postponed his trip to Tbilisi.
“I want to assure you that this information is untrue,” said Georgia’s Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs Nino Kalandadze, reports Georgia Online.
According to her, Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan’s visit wasn’t postponed — it’s simply that the final date was not decided and the matter currently is being addressed.
Earlier, Armenian media reported that Sargsyan was offended by Georgian President Mikheil Saakashvili’s statement regarding recent landslides on the Armenia-Georgia road in which he noted the slowness of Armenian rescue services in cleaning up the area and rescuing victims.
