05 August 2006 [15:25] - TODAY.AZ
The Georgian and Azerbaijani officials have agreed on demarcation of a 30-kilometer border line as a result of talks in Tbilisi on August 3-4.

As a result, a total of 300-kilometer section of the Georgian-Azeri border is now agreed, but about 35% of border line still remains disputed, Georgian Deputy Foreign Minister Giorgi Manjgaladze, who led the Georgian delegation at the talks, said on August 4.

Disputed areas involve Tsiteli Khidi (the Red Bridge) and Davit Gareji sections of the border.

Azerbaijani Deputy Foreign Minister Khalaf Khalafov told reporters after talks on August 4 that disputed issues will be discussed at the next round of talks, which are scheduled for September in Baku.
