Georgia to sever diplomatic ties with Russia
Georgia said today it will recall all diplomatic staff from its embassy in Moscow to protest the presence of Russian troops on its territory. Russia criticized the move, saying it will not benefit relations between the countries.
Georgia’s parliament had urged the government to sever diplomatic ties, calling Russia an “aggressor country.” Georgian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Nato Chikovani said Georgia will withdraw its staff on Saturday.
Russian news agencies have cited Russian Foreign Ministry spokesman Andrei Nesterenko as criticizing the move, saying it will not benefit bilateral relations.
