    Russia funds reconstruction of railway in Abkhazia
    Russia is to fund the reconstruction of the Abkhazian portion of the railway
    from Psou to Sukhumi, the information agency Apsnipress reports. This
    follows an agreement reached between the government of the unrecognized
    republic of Abkhazia and the authorities of the North Caucasus railway. Over
    20 sleeper-wagons and special equipment have been delivered by the Russian
    railway to Abkhazia to begin work on the project.
    Meanwhile, after a recent meeting with Armenian Prime Minister Andranik
    Margarian, Georgian PM Zurab Zhvania declared that the renewal of railway
    communications between the South Caucasus and Russia via Abkhazia is
    dependent on the safe return of Georgian refugees to Abkhazia.
