Semyon Grigoriev, the First Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of Russia to Abkhazia, now the Ambassador of Russia to Tajikistan congratulated Inal Ardzinba on the 30th anniversary of the establishment of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Abkhazia.

It is noted, in particular:

“Established at the height of the Patriotic War of the people of Abkhazia, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic has come a glorious path in thirty years and today it is a highly professional, modern department, the hallmark of which has always been a fusion of youth and experience.

At the head of the Ministry in different years were prominent by Abkhaz politicians. As the Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of Russia to Abkhazia, I am familiar with most of them and still maintain close friendly relations.

 Abkhazian diplomacy received a new impetus with your arrival at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, dear Inal Batuvich. Your activity and creativity are in demand right now, when life-changing changes are taking place in the world.

I would like to take this opportunity to wish you, veterans and current employees of the diplomatic service of Abkhazia, good health and new successes for the benefit of Abkhazia and our great friendship!”
