Is the border open from Georgia to Abkhazia

I’m a Canadian citizen, and need a visa for Russia, so not particularly convenient to go from there. Would love to visit Sokhumi though.

You still have to apply for a visa to enter Abkhazia. https://mfaapsny.org/en/

That’s how it’s spelt on Google for someone residing in Ireland. Not sure what to say.
