EU Envoy: Russia’s Peacekeeper Role Undermined by Policy

EU special representative to South Caucasus Peter Semneby told the Brussels-based EUobserver.com that Russia?s recent policy towards Georgia undermines Moscow?s role as a neutral peacekeeper in the Abkhaz and South Ossetian conflict resolution process.


“Recent events have added weight to the Georgian argument that Russia is not a neutral participant in the peacekeeping arrangements and negotiation formats? that the current status quo is not tenable, that in fact it’s not a status quo but is gradually deteriorating,” Semneby said.


But he also noted that the EU has “no consolidated position” on sending EU peacekeepers or “seeking a role in the formal negotiating formats.”
