Yerevan (Yerkir) – NATO has hit back at Moscow for signing a deal
with Abkhazia for the construction of a military base in the Black
Sea enclave.
The alliance swiftly urged the Kremlin to reverse what it called its
"invalid" agreement, saying it violates restrictions on military
forces set in a 2008 peace accord.
"The North Atlantic Council has condemned the decision by the Russian
Federation to recognize the Georgian regions of Abkhazia and South
Ossetia and calls on it to revoke this decision," the alliance
spokeswoman Carmen Romero said.
