The leaders underlined the importance of the UN's involvement in the Geneva International Discussions, the PM’s press office said.

"The Georgian side provided the UN Secretary General with detailed information about the difficult situation in Georgia’s occupied regions in regards to security and human rights, which is especially perturbing in the given conditions – there are no international mechanisms in the occupied regions,” the PM's statement claimed.

Garibashvili stressed the barb-wiring and fencing activities along the occupation line was "a violation of the international standards and non-use of force agreement."
