The Russian-Georgian accords that have been reached on the procedure
and timescale for the withdrawal of military bases have not made the
situation of the Russian service personnel in the republic easier,
Vladimir Kuparadze, deputy commander of the Group of Russian Troops in
the Transcaucasus, said today.
Among those who still cannot get into Georgia are Maj-Gen Aleksandr
Bespalov, the commander of the Group of Russian Troops in the
Transcaucasus, who is forced to stay in Armenia. He still has not been
issued a Georgian visa. The new deputy commander for armaments has
likewise been denied entry.
The Russian military fear that as a result the Georgian government may
thwart the process of timely withdrawal of the bases.
