    RIA Novosti, Russia
    June 22 2006

    TBILISI, June 22 (RIA Novosti) - A fifth train with Russian military
    equipment has left the northwestern Georgian region of Adjaria for
    Armenia, the Georgian defense ministry said Thursday.

    Under an agreement Russia and Georgia signed March 31, Russian
    troops and hardware are to leave Georgia's two Soviet-era bases in
    Akhalkalaki and Batumi by 2008. The withdrawal is being monitored by
    a joint Georgian-Russian commission set up under the March agreement.

    The bulk of Russia's weapons will return to Russia and the rest of
    it will be delivered to a Russian base in Armenia.
