Putin speaks out on Georgia

Aug 8 - Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin says it's a pity that fighting has broken out in Georgia on the of the first day of the Olympics.

According to Vladimir Putin, the start of the Olympic games is a day when guns are silent. But in South Ossetia, war planes can be seen and shells have been falling.

Georgian troops are pounding separatist forces in an attempt to reclaim control of the territory. Georgia's pro-Western president, Mikheil Saakashvili, said his forces had "freed" the greater part of the territory's capital, Tskhinvali, and ordered a full-scale mobilisation of military reservists.

Saakashvili, who wants to take his small Caucasus nation into NATO, has made it a priority to win back control of South Ossetia and Abkhazia, another rebel region on the Black Sea. The issue has bedevilled Georgia's relations with Russia, which is angered by Tbilisi's moves towards the Western fold and its pursuit of NATO membership.

  • @AlexSochi8 I don't know, but I don't think you can be protecting people by bombing civilians and villages 5 miles away from the conflict zone...

  • @pajp0 Счастья и Процветания тебе брат

  • How about Americans take their heads out of their asses and worry about their own 14 trillion depth problems...Not to mention you have been in Iraq.How long? 10 fucking years..The country is all fucked up today, and the only thing was done is to kill civilians... It took 5 days for Russians to create stability in Georgia, with as minimal casualties as possible. Show your people the real news not the corrupt media about other countries! Fucking pigs.!!!!!

  • @AlexSochi8 Yes and Georgia had propaganda too , Im not a fan of neither i hate when soviet brothers fight against eachother its a racist war a gladiator battle for USA and unnaceptable behaviour of Soviet brothers!!
