The Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe has failed
to reach an agreement on whether to send more military observers to
Georgia.
An OSCE representative told reporters that discussions on
the issue would continue. Representatives of the organization's 56
member countries met in Vienna on Monday to discuss sending
additional observers to the crisis region for a minimum of six
months. Russia, which also is an OSCE member, reportedly objected
to the immediate deployment of some 100 monitors. The Vienna-based
organisation currently has 200 staff in the Georgian capital
Tbilisi, including eight military observers.
