TBILISI, Georgia — Israel's ambassador to Georgia said his country has no intention to supply weapons to Georgia's separatist province of Abkhazia.
Ambassador Yitzhak Gerberg made the statement Friday following a visit to Abkhazia earlier in the week by representatives of an Israeli security firm.
Israel Ziv, the founder and owner of Global CST, a security consultancy, led a delegation of its executives to Abkhazia. They met with Abkhaz officials and discussed potential business ties.

A Message from The Moscow Times:
Dear readers,
We are facing unprecedented challenges. Russia's Prosecutor General's Office has designated The Moscow Times as an "undesirable" organization, criminalizing our work and putting our staff at risk of prosecution. This follows our earlier unjust labeling as a "foreign agent."
These actions are direct attempts to silence independent journalism in Russia. The authorities claim our work "discredits the decisions of the Russian leadership." We see things differently: we strive to provide accurate, unbiased reporting on Russia.
We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, refuse to be silenced. But to continue our work, we need your help.
Your support, no matter how small, makes a world of difference. If you can, please support us monthly starting from just $2. It's quick to set up, and every contribution makes a significant impact.
By supporting The Moscow Times, you're defending open, independent journalism in the face of repression. Thank you for standing with us.
Remind me later.
