The Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe adopted a new resolution that pays a great attention to Georgia. It includes all the countries in which the Council of Europe holds monitoring.

The PACE again expressed concern over Russia's non-fulfillment of its obligations, the press-service of the Georgian parliament said on Wednesday.

The resolution also refers to the process of coexistence in Georgia, high-profile cases of former senior officials and the independence of the justice system.

The PACE adopted the new resolution after the long-lasting debates with 126 votes against 31.

Large scale military action was launched in South Ossetia on August 8, 2008. Later, Russian troops occupied Tskhinvali and expelled the Georgian military.

Russia recognised the independence of South Ossetia and Abkhazia in late August. In response, Tbilisi ended diplomatic relations with Moscow and has called the two unrecognised republics of Abkhazia and South Ossetia occupied territories.
