Russia’s statelets game

Russia’s statelets game

Fri, Aug 21 2009 10:00 CET  
The visit to the breakaway Georgian region of Abkhazia by Russian prime minister Vladimir Putin on the August 12 anniversary of the Russia-Georgia conflict had "all the trappings of an emperor inspecting newly-acquired territory, with the Abkhaz leader obsequiously perching before him," a BBC reporter said.

While Tbilisi and Western leaders sharply condemned Putin’s visit as a sign of obstinate defiance by Moscow, not all analysts saw the visit as a sign that Russia should be regarded as inexorable in its seeking to expand and deepen its influence in the region.

Leading Bulgarian political scientist Ivan Krastev, in a brilliantly perceptive balance sheet on the political fallout of the August 2008 Russia-Georgia war published ...

Turk tanker operator says Abkhazia risks too high

Fri Aug 21, 2009 8:05pm IST

By Thomas Grove and Niko Mchedlishvili

ISTANBUL/TBILISI, Aug 21 (Reuters) - The Turkish operator of a tanker that was seized by Georgian authorities for delivering fuel to breakaway Abkhazia said on Friday he had given up the idea of sending any further supplies to the Black Sea territory.

Georgia has passed legislation that forbids commercial traffic heading to Abkhazia in an attempt to isolate the territory, which was recognised by Moscow as independent after a five-day war between Georgia and Russia last August.
