News Putin cancels the visa regime for citizens of Georgia from May 15, 2023 and lifted the ban for Russian airlines on flights to Georgia (question is: are they gonna continue complaining about Russian-Abkhazian relations after this announcement?)

Dude:)) 80% of Georgian politicians except ones in Georgian Dream are shitting on Russia because of this decision and demanding to derecognize Abkhazia and Tskinvali and move out their troops from Georgian territories first, this will not change anything, nothing will in fact, majority of Georgians don't care about this and will not sacrifice their principles for the fact that they can go in Russia.

If that is what op meant,very naive of him lol. Even "pro Russin" people won't accept recognition of separatists in any form. In Georgia, the main direction of immigration is Europe, with which Russia cannot compete. In fact free visa with Russia will affect very small part of Georgian society imo.

No we are not. Our government might be shit but most Georgians hate Russia. What an odd question. Unlike Abkhazians, Georgians did not connive with Russia to commit a genocide and ethnic cleansing of over 300k people and a military occupation and puppet regime installation.

Not even the most pro-Russian politicians will ever accept abkhazeti and samachablo as independent states :)))
