Gagloity: Georgia sets new post on border with South Ossetia

The village of Zemo-Nikozi, near the border with South Ossetia, is now housing a police station set up there by the Georgian party. Khokh Gagloity, the head of the delegation of South-Ossetian, said today at the meeting in Ergneti within the MPRI, that such Georgia's actions go against international agreements.

"This action is regarded as threatening by Georgia, causing a threat to stability and security in the region. This position of the South-Ossetian delegation at the MPRI has been also brought to the attention of international observers from the EU. The fact of setting up this post, along with setting up a post in Zardiantkari last summer and the fact of holding fire to kill at South-Ossetian border guards in the border area Koda-Tsnelis on December 2 last year, are contrary to the basic international agreements 'Medvedev-Sarkozy'," said Gagloity.

So far, the Georgian party gave no comments on the outcomes of the meeting within the MPRI. It is planned that the 33^rd meeting will take place on April 16.
