/PanARMENIAN.Net/ "NATO is following closely and with concern events
in Georgia," said Jaap de Hoop Scheffer, NATO Secretary General.
"I have asked NATO’s Special Representative for the Caucasus,
Ambassador Robert Simmons, to express to the Georgian Foreign Minister
the Alliance’s view that all parties must exercise restraint, avoid
violence and act within the law. The imposition of Emergency Rule,
and the closure of media outlets in Georgia, a Partner with which the
Alliance has an Intensified Dialogue, are of particular concern and
not in line with Euro-Atlantic values," he said, NATO press office
reported.
