Sukhum/Agency Caucasus – Abkhazia has been sending out items of heavy armament to its border to Georgia where a group of Georgian soldiers killed two Abkhazian security forces and kidnapped seven of them on September 20.
President Sergei Bagapsh spoke of plans on the part of Tbilisi to attack abruptly Abkhazia when he said that his administration has organized a transfer of items of heavy armament to mountainous areas across the border where these items will remain until the situation gets stable. “We have some reports of intelligence that say Georgia has plans to attack us abruptly. We will respond to the situation in the most reasonable way possible. We will also add force to checkpoints across the border,” he told a press conference in Sukhum.
Georgian President Mikhail Saakashvili promised when he was campaigning for the 2003 presidential elections to take over Abkhazia as well as South Ossetia until 2008. With this goal in his mind, he seems set to constant ‘provocative’ acts as Sukhum tends to define them.
When Georgia sent off troops last summer in violation of international agreements to Upper Kodor, an area of Abkhazian land under Georgian control, and when Georgia later founded an Abkhazian government in exile over there, one such major act was actually carried out on the part of Georgia. Besides, Georgia set up a youth camp along its border to Abkhazia this summer in support of Georgian nationalism. (Agency Caucasus)
