Tbilisi Provides Ossetian Villages with Promised Fertilizers

Georgian central government sent one hundred tons of agricultural fertilizers to the breakaway South Ossetia for distribution among the local population on June 4.


However, trucks loaded with the fertilizers, which were accompanied by Davit Shervashidze, the Georgian Minister of Agriculture and Food, were only able to distribute the humanitarian aid to two villages within the breakaway region. Both villages are populated predominately by ethnic Ossetians.
 
The trucks were reportedly barred from entering other villages in the region.
 
“We do not need your fertilizers. We have enough fertilizer to provide for ourselves. You’d better distribute them among your own Georgian population,” de facto South Ossetian Minister for Special Affairs Boris Chochiev told reporters earlier on June 4.
