Iakobashvili says that S. Ossetia agreed, but in later reports the S. Ossetians deny doing so. Instead, the S. Ossetians continued to push for talks in the framework of the JCC (http://tarjimani.blogspot.com/2008/08/south-ossetia-offers-to-hold-meeting-on.html), scheduling their own talks on August 9th--two days too late. <BR/><BR/>Georgia wanted bilateral talks because it wouldn't involve Russia; S. Ossetia wanted talks in the Framework of the JCC because Russia would be involved.<BR/><BR/>Hope this helps. If you would like me to translate more articles concerning this topic, let me know--I'd be happy to help.<BR/><BR/>RyanRyan Ericksonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18370039503835426792noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1063816378981081473.post-64773054976832247492008-08-17T19:55:00.000-04:002008-08-17T19:55:00.000-04:00i was wondering if you know about the 'blown tire'...i was wondering if you know about the 'blown tire' anecdote that Iakobashvili has been telling Western media... that Popov failed to show up in Tskhinvali and gave a blown tire as an excuse. I wonder how this anecdote is only emerging now, more than a week afterward, and whether Popov was meant to be in Tskhinvali at all, since the Georgians appeared to have been seeking bilateral talks with S.

Being able to understand both Russian and English I see a big difference in presenting the information in Russian and English-speaking sites, TV, newspapers. It takes me a lot of efforts for me to "find the truth". I can understand that for only Russian-speaking or only English-speaking people a lot of information is not accessible and people base their opinions on the one side messages. I want to thank you for providing the English-speaking auditory with the possibility to look at the event from the other point of view.<BR/><BR/>Elena<BR/>krakozjabra at inbox.ruAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1063816378981081473.post-35436274946461720652008-08-08T21:54:00.000-04:002008-08-08T21:54:00.000-04:00Thanks!
