Georgia demands Russia drop pro-rebel plans

TBILISI-Georgia demanded on Thursday that Russia drop plans to forge closer ties with two rebel regions of Georgia and urged the international community to help it put pressure on Moscow."We demand that Russia cancel all the decisions which breach the sovereignty of Georgia," Georgian President Mikhail Saakashvili told a Cabinet meeting.Foreign Minister David Bakradze called for a special debate by the U.N. Security Council to discuss the moves, which are likely to become a new irritant in relations between Russia and Western nations.Russia said on Wednesday it would establish legal links with Georgia's breakaway regions of Abkhazia and South Ossetia, which border Russia in the Caucasus.South African Ambassador to the United Nations Dumisani Kumalo told reporters at U.N. headquarters in New York that he received a letter from the Georgian delegation requesting a special council session on the latest developments with Russia.Kumalo, who holds the Security Council's rotating presidency, said the 15-nation body would most likely discuss the letter next week.In response to a reporter's question about the Georgian request, Britain's U.N. ambassador, John Sawers, said, "I think there have been some worrying developments in the south Caucusus and we need to consider this letter carefully."U.S. Republican presidential candidate John McCain accused Russia of seeking a de facto annexation of part of Georgia and urged European governments to join in condemning Moscow.
