The Choloki River in Georgia forms the border between the autonomous province of Adzharia and the province of Guria. For a time in the nineteenth century it formed the border between Turkey and Imperial Russia.
The bridge over Choloki river that was a main road link between Adzharia and the rest of Georgia was blown up on May 2, 2004 by the ousted leadership of the Autonomy. Adzharian leader Aslan Abashidze called the decision to blow up the bridges in the Kobuleti border region "a preventive measure against the possible attempt of military action by the central Georgian authorities,"
