Russia signals Georgia action
Russia indicated yesterday that it might take action if violence in the Georgian breakaway province of South Ossetia escalates. Last weekend six died in clashes between Georgian forces and separatist guerrillas in Tskhinvali, the South Ossetian capital.

Yuri Popov, a Russian special ambassador, said: "If events develop according to the worst-case violence scenario, Russia will not allow itself to remain indifferent," according to Interfax news agency.
