Yerevan (Yerkir) - The local population of Georgia's Kazbegi region
is against the reopening of the checkpoint at the Upper Lars between
Russia and Georgia. The locals have scheduled a rally to be held on
November 21 in Stepanitsminda, and say this is their own initiative
and no political party will attend the rally.
They say they are against the opening of the checkpoint because it
might result in Ossetians being settled in the region leading to a
separatist movement.
