Black Sea separatist region is backed by Moscow but recognised as part of Georgia by most of the world

It has been thrust into turmoil over concerns that a proposed investment deal with Russia could lead to apartment complexes mushrooming in a region known for its natural beauty and beaches.

Amid the unrest, the president of Abkhazia announced plans to halt the treaty. “The presidential administration is preparing a document to withdraw from parliament the draft law” on ratification, its press service said on Telegram. “The decision has been taken with the goal of stabilising the situation in the republic.”

Moscow on Friday expressed “concern” over the protests, urged Russians not to visit Abkhazia and said those there should consider leaving. After a short war with Georgia in 2008, Russia recognised both Abkhazia and South Ossetia as independent countries and has maintained a military presence there.
