Russian Communist Party leader and member of the PACE Russian
delegation Genadi Ziuganov believes that the Russian-Georgian war was
planned beforehand by the unruly adventurer [Georgian President Mikhail
Sahakashvili] and feels sorry that the Georgian people play by his
rules. During the Strasburg press conference today Ziuganov recalled
that World War I and II began as a result of the provocation of a
psycho and mentioned a couple of motives for the Georgian President
to start the war:
1.Sahakashvili was on the verge of downfall-he falsified the elections.
2.NATO integration was constantly postponed
The U.S. is getting ready for elections, is in a financial crisis
and needs support
Since, according to Ziuganov, it was impossible to start a war
against Iran now, the war broke out in Georgia. Ziuganov stressed a
couple of times the importance of the right to self-determination
of nations. What is Ziuganov's view on the Nagorno-Karabagh peace
settlement? Is it possible to see the Russian State Duma recognize
Artsakh's independence as it recognized the independence of Abkhazia
and Southern Osetia? In response to these questions, Genadi Ziuganov
reminded that he has met several times with Abkhazian president
Sergey Bagapshi, there have been special visits and discussions. As
far as Nagorno-Karabagh is concerned: "Go ahead, Karabagh must take
the initiative."
