To achieve peace and stability in Georgia, Japan should increase the pressure on Moscow to end its occupation of the sovereign state, Georgian Ambassador to Japan Ivane Matchavariani said Wednesday in Tokyo.

"Japan could and should engage" in monitoring the situation and make its voice heard to bring peace and stability to Georgia, the ambassador said.
