GEORGIA AIMS TO RESOLVE "FROZEN" CONFLICTS BY FORCE - BORDYUZHA
ITAR-TASS, Russia
Sept 27 2006
DAGOMYS, September 27 (Itar-Tass) - The Georgian leadership aims at
"resolving so-called frozen conflicts by force," Secretary General
of the Collective Security Treaty Organization Nikolai Bordyuzha said.
"I have no doubts whatsoever on this account," Bordyuzha said at the
11th "All Russia-2006" forum on Wednesday, "the Georgian leadership's
actions, especially its Defense Ministry's, are aimed at aggravating
the situation."
"Georgia is seeking to join NATO, but cannot realize this wish until
the "frozen conflicts" have been settled. Its leadership therefore is
counting to achieve the solution of the South Ossetian and Abkhazian
problems at all costs, including by using force," he underlined.
Tbilisi should understand that the use of force will expand the
conflict, "which will affect not only Georgia but also Armenia and
Russia. How can it be quenched afterwards?" Bordyuzha went on to say.
In his view, the main thing now is not to rush things, in order to
prevent the worsening of the conflict situation.
"One should understand that Georgia will never change its geographic
position and will remain Russia's neighbor. Rulers come and go,
while peoples and neighboring states remain. One should think not
about his wishes of the present moment, but extrapolate his actions
for a long-term perspective. It appears the Georgian leadership lacks
such an understanding," the CSTO secretary general underlined.
