Russia and Georgia will be separated in the draw for the 2014 World
Cup, as will Armenia and Azerbaijan, in a bid to limit potential
political problems, the Associated Press reports.
Russia and Georgia briefly warred in August 2008. Armenia and
Azerbaijan, which have no diplomatic relations, were drawn together in
Euro 2008 qualifying but the matches were never played. The countries
are in a territorial dispute over the Nagorno-Karabakh region.
