BBC finally acknowledges Georgia’s aggression against South Ossetia. Thank you

The British Broadcasting Corporation prepared a program which gave evidence of Georgia’s crimes committed against the people of South Ossetia. Tim Whewell, a BBC correspondent, visited the region, where the battles took places in August of this year, and interviewed eyewitnesses of those events. The program was aired on the radio October 28, the BBC reports. It has also been uploaded on the website of the company.

Britain’s Foreign Secretary David Miliband told the BBC that Tbilisi’s actions were irresponsible, although he continued with saying that Russia’s response to the Georgia-led aggression was disproportionate and incorrect.

Daniel Fried, Assistant to the US Secretary of State, said that the USA had repeatedly warned Georgia of the inadmissibility of the use of force against South Ossetia. Fried said that he was not certain whether the Georgians attacked the civil population of South Ossetia indeed, although the actions of the Georgian army raised serious concerns with the US administration.

Georgia invaded the then-unrecognized republic of South Ossetia August 7. Russia responded to the Georgian aggression immediately by sending its troops to South Ossetia to defend the local population.

The conflict triggered the most serious crisis in the post-Cold War relations between Russia and the West.

... NATO used to be a difensive alliance ...
... admitting countries with agression based foreign policies ...
... will inevitably lead to a world war ...
... european nations should leave NATO ...
... and regroup under the UEO ...
... before is too late ...
