Russia condemned by international community
Dominican Republic News.Net Thursday 28th August, 2008
The G7, the seven most industrialised nations, have issued a stinging condemnation of the Russian recognition of South Ossetia and Abkhazia.
The US, Canada, the UK, Japan, France, Germany and Italy accuse Russia of violating Georgia's sovereignty.
NATO is demanding that Russia withdraws its recognition of South Ossetia and Abkhazia because it violates resolutions adopted by the United Nations and the Organsation for Security and Operation in Europe.
Ukrainian President Viktor Yushchenko called Russia's recognition of the two breakaway regions a threat to peace in the region and in Europe.
Georgia has recalled from Moscow all but two of its diplomats.
Tbilisi reports that Russian forces will withdraw from the strategic port of Poti on Friday.
Georgia says the move is the result of international pressure.
The Russian government has not yet confirmed the withdrawal.

Russia condemned by international community
Any country with resources daring to be independent will be put into sport light by these bunch of greedy G7 nations. Russian should reject their unreasonable demand and expect support from all other nations in the world, eventhough western press trying to hind that G7 means the world.

The corrupt world police is coming back.
Georgia and Ossetia are both breakaway territory of former Soviet Union, they are equal in status. Its is power play that decide who gets what in the region. At least Russia let the people choose where they want to go, versus America’s greed to want to grap Ossetia for its crony in Georgia. American as usual is playing a chess game to control the flow of world oil, a chess board fill with bloods of innocent harmless people.

Russia was aware of this prior to entering into a conflict that was provoked. Rumors out of Tbilisi have been very unreliable to date. Russia does have resources. That is the point.

russia o russia
first of all russia does not belng in any g grouping. the grp is for the industrialized democracies. there are many more nations in europe as well as taiwan (albeit du to political hangups c draconian china) and s korea who are democracies and have industrialized economies that are not members of any g-grouping russia is not even close. so mccain’s talk of kicking russia out is consistent c the fact that russia does not belong in the first place! russia may have been so-called provoked, but russia cant get over the fact that have a large land mass and nukes do no make a world power. georgia is a democracy and belongs in nato and the eu. as “bad” as the us and or uk and club are, you can still see new democracies naturally flocking away from the likes of russia and china to the embrace of the usa.

US might want our US Navy’s 3 battle ships to stay longer (months) in Black Sea’s Georgia’s coast, last night the “Russia Today” TV news has began to show off the Russian Navy docking at Abkhazia’s coast side-by-side, while drinking Champagne and Vodka, peeking at the US Navy all the time.
The 2009 McCAIN administartion in White House may NOT play Russian’s PM Vladimir Putin’s G-8 chessboard.

Unregistered? Is that like a poodle or something? Mr/Ms Odium, could it be that you’ve been on a private search for something?
What did they tell you? This started a long time ago. Sanctions, I’m starting to find this humorous. If every country that they’ve sanctioned sticks together they’ll be fine.
Wisdom? At the point of a knife, is that considered merciful or cruelty to you. There is an old saying, if you want yourself a toy go out and get one.
This is not Putin, and he has a name, rude.
In the Chessboard of life together they have acquired, (makes a good word), Stalemate for the time being but they’re watching the verge of Checkmate, in their favor.
Definition Cognizant: informed, aware.
After 200 yrs. you think they’d find something wise to call as a name. It’s like being called European when you are not. Or like having a rapist scream whore before the fact and then claim he didn’t plan, simple but foolish.
