“I fully share the position of the Ministry of Economy and Sustainable Development of Georgia ... The stronger the economic ties with Russia, the better the Georgian people live,” Morozov said.
At the same time, he stressed the importance of restoring relations between the two countries. This, according to the senator, will be possible only when Tbilisi recognizes "the priority of the safety of Russian tourists over their political ambitions."
“What happened a week ago in Tbilisi is ... a very serious blow to trade and economic relations,” added Morozov.
Earlier, Tornava said that pragmatic, economic relations with Russia would benefit Georgia.
