Is Russia Pulling Out Or Not?
Now we can’t even be sure. Just depends on which news source you go by I guess. I don’t see it being possible to do both to the extremes that are being reported thus far. On one side, you have reports that streams of Russian armor are heading out of Georgia proper. On the other side, there are reports of Russian soldiers digging in at checkpoints they’ve set up. Which suggests “they” are there to stay a while.
We’ll start with the reporting about pullbacks. Per the AP article found HERE, you have this opening to their article;
“IGOETI, Georgia - Russian military convoys rolled out of three key positions in Georgia and headed toward Moscow-backed separatist regions on Friday in a significant withdrawal two weeks after thousands of troops roared into the former Soviet republic.”
