The judgment of the European Court of Human Rights is an unprecedented victory of Georgian, which unequivocally proved the responsibility of the Russia during the August 200 war. Such a statement made the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Georgia while commenting the decision of the European court.

“ECHR decision is the first international assessment of the military aggression carried out by Russia against Georgia, which legally confirmed Russia’s guilt in the committed crimes.

The European Court of Human Rights made clear the Russian occupation and effective control of Georgia, violations of the August 2008 ceasefire agreement, and Russia’s responsibility for violating the right of hundreds of thousands of internally displaced persons and refugees to return to their homes”, - said Davit Zalkaliani.
