Moscow/ Tbilisi, Georgia - German Foreign Minister Frank- Walter Steinmeier arrived in Tbilisi on Thursday in an effort to revive peace talks over simmering conflicts in Georgia's rebel regions of Abkhazia and South Ossetia.
"We don't have any illusions about simple answers, but we cannot stand by without acting on this conflict. That would be irresponsible," Steinmeier told journalist on the flight over.
Steinmeier's task will be to align the views from Georgia with the demands of Moscow and the Russian-backed separatist regions.
