The U.S. once promised Russia to block Georgia’s way to NATO if it
uses force against South Ossetia, Russia’s Foreign Minister said.

"We warned our American counterparts against consequences of
Saakashvili’s regime. In response, they said that the use of force
against South Ossetia will deprive Georgia of any chance to join NATO,"
Sergei Larvov said.

"Nevertheless, the U.S. keeps supporting Georgia’s accession to the
Alliance after the August hostilities," he said, Novosti Georgia
reports.
