Русская версияThe foreign ministers of the G7 group of industrialised nations are
urging Russia to respect Georgia's territorial integrity.
At a
press conference on Monday in Tbilisi, Georgian President Mikhail
Saakashvili accused the Kremlin of ethnic cleansing and attempting
to topple his government. Earlier, Saakashvili signed a ceasefire
agreement proposed by European Union envoys, who will travel to
Moscow in an attempt to persuade Russia to halt the fighting in
Georgia. For its part, Moscow has accused the Washington of trying
to disrupt its military operations by flying Georgian troops from
Iraq into the conflict zone in South Ossetia. The Kremlin also
supports Abkhazia, another Georgian breakaway province, and has
issued an ultimatum for Georgian forces there to disarm. Tblisi has
rejected the demand.
