Русская версияGeorgian President Mikhail Saakashvili claims that Russian attacks
on his country are continuing even after Moscow ordered an end to
military action.
Russian officials rejected the claim as a
provocation and insisted that all operations in Georgia had halted
as was declared by Russian President Dmitry Medvedev earlier on
Tuesday. There is no independent confirmation of either assertion.
French President Nicolas Sarkozy travelled to Moscow to present an
EU-backed peace plan that envisages an immediate truce, respect for
Georgia's territorial integrity and a return to the status quo that
prevailed before Georgian troops attacked South Ossetia last week.
Meanwhile Saakashvili said that Georgia would quit the Commonwealth
of Independent States (CIS) and urged Ukraine to follow suit.
