Flash-poll: The Authorities of Georgia offer the people of South Ossetia and Abkhazia the neutral passports (in which the citizenship and the state belonging are not indicated). What is your attitude to such kind of offers?

Alexander Pliev, a physician:
At present, South Ossetia and Georgia have no any diplomatic relations absolutely, that means, Georgia does not exist in political sense for us. If Georgia does not apologize and does not acknowledge South Ossetia, it`s not worth-while to talk to her. One could not have a talk about any passports!

Concerning the statement of the commission NATO-Georgia.

Recently the ministerial meeting of the commission «Georgia- NATO" has taken place in Berlin. The joint statement has been accepted on the results of the meeting. The statement includes the openly provocative expressions and appeals, - in particular, to Russia, - to cancel the recognition of the independence of South Ossetia and Abkhazia, and also to «fulfill all the obligations on cease-fire taken on the agreement ".

Khabalov Vladimir Dmitrievich, 1952 d.b., an inhabitant of Tskhinval
I live in the northern outskirts of Tskhinval. At night from seventh to eighth of August 2008 about 12 o’clock a missile burst next to our house. The light was switched off; the windows were knocked out by the explosive wave.

There is no any sense for South Ossetia to take the «neutral passports", which are being offered by Georgia. It has been reported IA "Res" by the South-Ossetian expert on conflicts, the chief of the NGO "Association of social, economic and cultural development" Dina Alborova.

We’ll start the review of the Georgian press with a report that the major russian-language newspaper in Georgia "The independent Georgia", which was founded in 1922 titled as "Zarya Vostoka («The dawn of the Orient") (while being ruled by Gamsakhurdia-it was titled as «The Messenger of Georgia»), ceased to be issued. Is it officially said only about the "suspense of the issue". How the next temporal measure will become the constant one - time will show. The remained georgian pro-government MM, with calls of samurai attacked upon Israel: "If these businessmen (the Israeli investors Fuks and Frenkel, to whom Georgia owned 100 million dollars and threw them into prison on accusation of offering the bribe for not paying the debt) have dared to give the bribe to the officials of Georgia, it probably means they got accustomed to do it in Israel" (writes "Georgia Online" in the article "The Head of the Israeli Foreign Office may be accused of corruption").
