    Russia presents Georgia with timetable for removal of military hardware in 2006

    Rustavi-2 TV, Tbilisi
    17 Mar 06

    [Presenter] Moscow has presented Georgia with a timetable for the
    withdrawal of 358 pieces of hardware from Georgian territory between
    12 May and 18 August 2006. One hundred and thirteen tanks will be
    removed by sea, while 369 pieces of heavy armour will be relocated
    to the Gyumri base in Armenia [figures as heard]. Georgia has even
    built a special platform in Tsalka.

    Russia has also presented Georgia with a list of items which will be
    disposed of on Georgian territory.

    [Mamuka Kudava, deputy defence minister] Already by the end of March
    they will present us with more detailed information on the hardware
    to be removed by the end of 2006 and a precise timetable, which is
    very important.

    We also hope that the handover to the Ministry of Defence of facilities
    not belonging to Russian bases will continue.
