Further “borderization” from Georgian breakaway region of South Ossetia is completely unacceptable, Carl Hartzell, Ambassador of the European Union to Georgia, has tweeted.

Carl Hartzell calls on South Ossetian and Russian security actors to refrain from any further steps that could escalate the situation.

“Further “borderization” from the Georgian breakaway region of South Ossetia is completely unacceptable. I call on South Ossetian and Russian security actors to immediately stop these activities and to refrain from any further steps that could escalate the situation,” the EU Ambassador to Georgia wrote.
