MOSCOW, November 7 (Itar-Tass) --The last train with arms and property
from Russia's 12th military base in Batumi will leave Georgia for
Russia on November 8, an aide to commander of the Russian Land Forces,
Colonel Igor Konashenkov, said on Wednesday.
"We are finishing the preparation for the departure of the last
military train with military hardware and property from the 12th
Russian military base in Batumi," he said.
"The train will leave for Russia on Thursday morning. It will take
12 vehicles and property of about 55 tonnes," Konashenkov said.
"All hardware has already been loaded on the platforms and been
examined by the Georgian side. This is the last train to leave
Georgia for Russia with military hardware and property from the
Russian military bases in Georgia," he said.
Another train will leave Batumi in the middle of November to bring
additional supplies for the 102nd Russian military base in Gyumri,
Armenia.
"That will complete the withdrawal of military property and hardware
from the Russian military bases in Georgia to Russia," Konashenkov
said.
Russia has withdrawn over 500 pieces of military hardware (about 350
motor vehicles and over 150 armoured vehicles) and almost 2,000 tonnes
of other property from the Russian military bases in Georgia in 2007.
Four trains were dispatched to Armenia for the 102nd military base
in Gyumri.
