Georgia joins the international sanctions against Iran and stops air traffic with that country. Prime Minister Irakli Kobakhidze announced this in a conversation with journalists. "Georgia always takes into account the sanctions regimes applied to this or that country. We have made a corresponding decision regarding Iran as well, regarding which the Ministry of Economy has already issued a statement," said Kobakhidze. He emphasized that Georgia does not impose bilateral sanctions on Iran, because "it would be an absurd and wrong step". "We act according to the international sanctions regime," said Kobakhidze. According to him, the same approach was used in the case of Russia, when Georgia did not apply bilateral sanctions. "This is our general policy. we do not impose bilateral sanctions on neighboring countries, but we take into account international sanctions regimes," added Kobakhidze.
