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 now attempt
to persuade Russia to accept a truce in Georgia. For its part,
Moscow has accused Washington of trying to disrupt its military
operations by flying Georgian troops from Iraq into the conflict
zone in South Ossetia. Russian President Dmitry Medvedev has
suggested that the Organization for Security and Cooperation in
Europe send observers to the disputed region, where the Kremlin
charges that Tbilisi has triggered a humanitarian catastrophe.
