The President of Ukraine supported the de-occupation of Georgia

Volodymyr Zelensky expressed solidarity with Georgia and reaffirmed support for its sovereignty on the anniversary of the five-day war with the Russian Federation in 2008. “Only the complete de-occupation of Ukrainian and Georgian lands, the punishment of the Russian invader and compensation for the damage caused by him will return peace and stability to Europe and the world,” wrote President of Ukraine on his Twitter account.

Fifteen years have passed since the start of the Five Day War. In August 2008, a conflict arose between the Russian Federation and Georgia after Tbilisi's attempts to regain control over the self-proclaimed republics of South Ossetia and Abkhazia. The fighting continued until August 12 and ended with the signing of a peace plan. Then 170 employees of the Ministry of Defense of Georgia, 14 employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and 224 civilians were killed. After the end of hostilities, the Russian authorities supported the separation from Georgia of its territories - Abkhazia and South Ossetia.
