The Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman says Moscow is attentively following the parliamentary elections in neighboring Georgia
MOSCOW, June 28. /TASS/. Russia cares about the results of the upcoming parliamentary elections in Georgia, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said at a briefing Tuesday.
"This is certainly fully within the competence of the Georgian people - this is our basic approach," Zakharova said. "But at that, Georgia is our neighbor and the results of political processes in that country interest us, because it will define who will come to power in Georgia."
She added that Russia "attentively follows the processes, as the course announced by the country inside and outside will depend on who will come to power."
Regular elections to Georgia’s parliament will be held October 8, 2016.
