Russian militaries detained Erik Fournier, the ambassador of France to Georgia, at one of the checkpoint stationed in Gori. The ambassador was on his back way to Tbilisi from Sachkhere.

Shida Kartli administration reports that Vladimir Vardzelashvili, the Governor of Shida Kartli, tried to convince the aggressors to release the French Diplomat, however, Mr. Furnier was arrested for an hour. Afterwards, the vehicle of the ambassadors was halted and checked up by Russians at another checkpoint in Igoeti.

Ambassador spent last night in Sachkhere military base and was meeting local population showing moral support to them. Mr. Furnier expressed his hope that Russian president would keep the word and pullout its forces from Georgia.

Later today, the ambassador will view the places where Russians have arranged illegal checkpoints and arrive in Kutaisi afterwards, where he will meet with regional authorities.

  • You RUSSIANS are NOT EUROPEANS period.

  • I dont see a Russian flag? he he, you belive every single fairy tail!

  • Ecoutez, mon ami, nous sommes, et toujours serons ensemble dans Europe: politiquement, ecomomiquement etc. Sarkozi a fait bon job pour la paix et il n'a pas aucune probleme ici avec la France. Les Giorgeines essayent leurs provocations, mais c'est inutile.

    Peace!

  • message to russia : we also  get nuclear weapons..... so stop provocation

  • Вот ведь наши жгут! Молодцы, орлы. Кстати, послу ждать пришлось аж 40 мин, пока русский генерал приехать, чтобы встретить на подобающем уровне. Показал окрестности, прокатившись с незадачливым французом, и сдал его "взад" грузина, вежливо попросив посла, чтобы в следующий раз вовремя сообщил о своем планируемом визите.

  • When "something occurs", the Georgian operators always nearby! It is the US provocation of 100 %

  • I dont belive in America.
