VOA News - Explosion Destroys Key Bridge in Georgia: By VOA News

Can you believe the lies and bullcrap in the following story?


An explosion has destroyed a key bridge linking Georgia's breakaway republic of Abkhazia with the rest of the country.

Georgian officials and Abkhazian authorities blamed each other for the blast. Residents of Abkhazia's Gali district had used the bridge to reach Georgia's Zugdidi region. Georgian authorities have called the explosion an effort by separatist and Russian officials to cut off Abkhazia and another breakaway Georgian region, South Ossetia, from the rest of the country.

(Right Russia, like I am going to believe that. Georgia blows up its own bridge so they can no longer get to their citizens.)

Meanwhile, the chief of the European Union monitors in Georgia, Hansjoerg Haber, asked Russia to give specific information about what it called Georgian ceasefire violations near the two breakaway areas. He said Russia has so far not provided even a telephone number monitors could use for consultations. He also urged the Russians and authorities in breakaway regions to permit monitors entry into the two areas.

(This is how the Russians act with a two faced double standard. Maybe that is why their bird symbol has two heads, lol)

Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov Thursday complained that European monitors are ignoring Georgian troop movements that violate the ceasefire accords.

(Bullcrap from Lavrov. Georgia is moving its troops in Georgia. Russia is moving its troops in violation of international law and its withdrawal agreement. Russia's troops are not in Russia but in Georgia territory. Wake up Lavrov and learn about Geography)

Russia has formally recognized the independence of the two breakaway areas and President Dmitri Medvedev Friday appointed ambassadors to Abkhazia and South Ossetia.

(I think the US should recognize any state or city in Russia that wants to be part of the US or any other country, that sounds fair. If Russia can do it why can't the rest of the world? Because it is against the law, glupi!)

Russian troops swept into Georgia in August, after Georgian forces tried to regain control of South Ossetia by force. The Russian troops withdrew from most of Georgia earlier this month but remain in the breakaway regions."

(Do you see how the media puts the information that is the worst at the end of the story? Russia has not withdrawn. They are still there. How silly of me to forget this fact. lol
