I.Ivanov: Georgia Should Sign Treaties on Non-Use of Force

Secretary of the Russian Security Council Igor Ivanov said on October 31 that Georgia should sign an agreement with the Abkhaz and South Ossetian sides on the non-use of force.

Georgia has refused to sign such agreements, saying that an international peacekeeping force, and not the Russian-led peacekeeping operation, should be a guarantor of non-use of force agreements.

?First of all Georgia should sign these agreements? If Georgia follows this path and not the path of threats and provocations, which consistently take place, the atmosphere will change [in Russo-Georgian relations],? RIA Novosti news agency quoted Ivanov as saying.
