Russia, Georgia Meet On Restoring Air Links

Russia and Georgia are pursuing talks on restoring air travel between the two countries, which were suspended by Moscow last year during a bitter dispute.

A senior Russian transport official, Gennady Loshchyonov, said the two sides, which began negotiations on February 5, had agreed to form a working group to resolve outstanding issues.

Russia recalled its ambassador, cut transport links, and launched a crackdown on Georgian migrants in October in the wake of a spying row.
