Georgia is ready to resume talks with its breakaway Abkhazia region in March 2005 in Geneva "at the point where they were halted after the Abkhaz delegation left the negotiations last year," Georgian Foreign Minister Salome Zourabichvili told Interfax on Wednesday.

On Tuesday, Abkhaz Foreign Minister Sergei Shamba said Abkhazia was ready for more talks with Georgia.

"We are ready to take part in a meeting in Geneva in March under the aegis of the UN Secretary General's Group of Friends [of Georgia], which brings together the U.S., Great Britain, France, Russia and Germany," Shamba told Interfax.
