MOSCOW. April 17 (Interfax) - The question of holding a top level Russian-Georgian meeting was discussed at a meeting in Prague by Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Grigory Karasin and special envoy of the Georgian prime minister for relations with Russia Zurab Abashidze.
"The subject was raised but it was stressed that the summit must be thoroughly planned, prepared, and this requires time and objective prerequisites," Karasin said to Interfax on Wednesday.
At the meeting the sides "concentrated on practical aspects of bilateral relations," he said. "During last year much was achieved in trade and transport. Trade turnover between our two countries grew 50% with exports of Georgian commodities to the Russian market quadrupling," Karasin said.
