Burjanadze Denies Georgia Harbors Terrorists
Interim President Nino Burjanadze, who visits Russia on December 24-25, dismissed Russian officials’ accusations that Georgia harbors terrorists, as “groundless.”
“I am surprised with the statement of Mr. Yastrzhembsky [Russian President’s aide]. I think it is inadmissible to make statements like this, especially before the talks with Vladimir Putin,” Nino Burjanadze said. She will meet Russia’s President on December 25.
Sergey Yastrzhembsky said at a news briefing on December 24, “Georgia still remains a hide-out for terrorists, who infiltrate into Russia from the Pankisi gorge.”
