A regular meeting of the Incident Prevention and Response Mechanism (IPRM) is taking place in Ergnet, on the border between South Ossetia and Georgia.
The main topic of discussion, as before, will be the illegal Georgian police post, located in South Ossetia since the end of August 2019.
The meeting participants will also discuss security issues in the region and analyze border violation statistics recorded since the previous IPRM meeting.
The meeting is being held without the participation of media representatives.
The meetings in Ergnet are held as part of the Geneva Discussions on Security in the Caucasus and are attended by delegations from South Ossetia, Russia, Georgia, the European Union, and the OSCE.
The IPRM format addresses security issues along the state border between South Ossetia and Georgia.
A hotline is also in place, allowing the parties to quickly contact each other in the event of an incident.
