Russia and Georgia accuse each other of continuing violence

Monday, 11 August 2008

Russia and Georgia are accusing each other of yet more violence, despite a ceasefire being signed.

President Saakashvili signed an EU-backed agreement earlier, but Moscow is refusing to consider the document.

The Minister for Foreign Affairs Micheal Martin said today that he was gravely concerned about the violence and that the Irish Government fully supports Georgia's sovereignty.

And US President George W Bush has said that the fighting is unacceptable.

Columnist Comments

• The Belfast hotel where you check in but never leave

Wars never end. Not if you're fighting in them, even reporting them.

• Don't let sisters stop you looking for love, Cheryl

What's wrong with wanting a man? I ask because lately I've lost count of the miserable, lonely female celebrities being told by other women that they should stay single.

• Seeing is believing when it comes to the justice system

A Bill in the Queen’s Speech will, hopefully, speed up the process of letting some more sunlight into Northern Ireland’s rather musty justice system.

• So that's why their pupils were glazed in Play School

Odd period, the 1970s. I've tended to deride them as grim, which they certainly were, but I appreciate now the music and, er, that's about it. They weren't particularly happy years in Northern Ireland.

• Tragedy is opportunity for conflict resolution envoys

The Good Friday Agreement is a cure for which there is no known illness. Nowhere in its 11,000 words does it identify the problem which it purports to solve.
