November 2013 - Richard Norland (-former- U.S. ambassador to Georgia]: "Georgians were treating Abkhazians and Ossetians the same way as Russians were treating Georgians and Georgia will have to apologize for the mistakes of the past."

As historian Stanislav Lakoba said, Abkhazia is somewhere between a hammer and an anvil. Throughout the 19th and 20th centuries, Abkhazia was subjected to both Russian imperialism and Georgian imperialism and its nasty nationalism.
 
And one must remember that Norland represented the US government which armed and trained the Georgian aggressors against Abkhazia and S Ossetia. See AW's comment (Nov. 2013) https://abkhazworld.com/aw/analysis/1084-on-richard-norland-s-statement
