The hamlet of Chantilly restored to its eighteenth

past, ie time of the Prince de Conde, these small buildings scroll saw high society, s'gayer come to a place voluntarily original. "It was the era of gardens so-called Anglo-Chinese and return to nature. Prince de Conde has built these houses, rustic on the outside with a refinement in the extreme: it is this contrast which created the surprise, "said Daniele Clergeot, Director General of the Chantilly area. Unfortunately, lack of resources, houses are now empty, and there is no trace of luxurious curtains rose, grass that soil or plants who decorated the interior walls. "We chose the outside because otherwise, the houses have simply disappeared," Pierre-Antoine advance Gati, chief architect of historic monuments. But this hamlet was very famous and served as a model for including that of Marie-Antoinette at Versailles.

The restoration work lasted nearly a year. It took a waiver request for reconstruct the buildings as they were built in 1775. For the Duke of Aumale, the last occupant of the field, wanting "to keep France on Chantilly area in its integrity" had promised at the Institut de France, which he had left, there would be no major changes. Any conservation will be "outside the spirit of faction, like shaking too abrupt, and maintaining its independence amid fluctuations policies", had he demanded.

A restoration faithful to engravings

However, the hamlet had suffered damage after the Revolution, then profound changes over time. Eager to regain the eighteenth aspect, the restorers have had to disregard the principle of "no change". And they got rid of moldings, tile or plaster nineteenth most recent.

In the archives of the castle, the architect has found watercolors faithful to the original buildings. In addition, the album of Count North, the Prince de Conde offered in 1784 to the future Czar Paul I, contains engravings very specific: they literally served as a guide for the work.

The big teams, which are home to the Living Museum of the Horse will be partially rebuilt from 2009. The field of Chantilly considering, moreover, to restore the painting gallery of the Museum of Cond. But it faces a financial question and foremost, a practical problem: according to the wishes of the Duke of Aumale, collections should not be moved from Cond Museum, which makes the very organization of work difficult.

This newspaper published on Monday that a legal report in the hands of leaders of the PP maintains that Blesa should have left the chairmanship of Caja Madrid last day 12, after serving the legal deadline.

Blesa refused to take initiatives to clarify the matter, because in his view, there is no doubt legal. "I've talked to Mariano Rajoy, Esperanza Aguirre and Alberto Ruiz-Gallardn and tell me that there is no report that I've passed the legal time limit," said the president, according to sources close to the board. He also maintained contacts with his personal friend, former chairman of the Government, Jos Mara Aznar, who was the one who appointed him in 1996 in front of the box.

Therefore, in view Blesa, information on THE WORLD is "false" and the report mentioned in it "does not exist." This 17-page document argues that, Blesa has already passed the 12-year maximum period for legal stay in his office. It bases this conclusion that the president does not apply transitional provision fifth in the Madrid Box Act 2003 which allows for the current members of the board of directors continue until 2015. The report argues that the post of chairman of Caja Madrid is unique and has to be mentioned explicitly in the Act so that it is concerned, but this is not done fifth in the provision.

Blesa interpreted, for its part that it is applicable to it and that's why not only continues to face, but it is in the process of launching Cibeles, the financial corporation that must mark a milestone in the modernization and internationalization of the entity. The legal doubt on the continuity of Blesa is also of interest to the PSOE. "It's not a good confusion in financial institutions. There must be greater legal transparency," he said to this newspaper Antonio Miguel Carmona, currently secretary for economic policy at the Federation Socialist Madrilea.

Carmona, "there should be no subjective interpretations but clear criteria" and are favored to clearing the doubt. The spokesman was also critical of the socialist Blesa last July when it raised the scandal of the round trip of Carlos Vela, the executive of the financial institution that signed for Fadesa after Martins-authorized loans and then returned to the box days before that the real estate suspend payments.

In contrast, the board of directors yesterday, counselor socialist, Antonio Romero-owned by the old guard of the party in Madrid defended the interpretation of Blesa and had criticized that "attempts at destabilization of the box."

Rodriguez did not specify in his speech which bodies should do a report on the mandate of Blesa. In the Caja Madrid is competent Control Committee, which "aims to ensure that the management of the Governing Council is conducted in the most efficient manner, complying with the laws and statutes and with the instructions received from the General Assembly" , According to the statutes of the fourth largest financial institution in Spain.

Control Committee, chaired by former deputy regional PP, Paul Bees, has a regular meeting tomorrow.

The council yesterday are not yet formalized the relationship of directors that will be part of Cibeles, but Blesa distributed a record of the Executive Committee in which members are appointed on behalf of the entity to the vice-presidents Jose Antonio Moral Santn ( IU) and Rodriguez Ponga, in addition to Mercedes Rojo (assistant Esperanza Aguirre), Francisco Baquero (Workers Commissions) and the aforementioned Romero (by the PSOE). They will join eventually as independent, among others, former Interior Minister Angel Acebes.

A man-bird crosses the English Channel

Today is the day of the 'first times'. Never before had happened that a man fly across the English Channel provided only one engine for propulsion. Nor that a feat of this caliber was broadcast live twice: on the channel 'National Geographic' and at the same time, through its website.

Pilot Yves Rossy may one day feel like Peter Pan. The Swiss adventurer will make history by becoming the first man to cross the English Channel by air, fitted with a homemade reactor acceded to his back.

This is not the first time that this man-bird has touched the clouds. Rossy has previous experience flights and tunnels in the Swiss Alps (such as that seen in the video), which have helped drive the wings and refine their skills.

Many have been attempts by the man plunge to vacuum and overcome the gravity and the birds. The mythology speaks of Icarus and the History highlights Leonardo Da Vinci, who in 1490 and designed a flying machine.

National Merit

But

Medal for the first human being who flew stays in Spain. Specifically in a small town of Burgos. In 1793, Diego Martin Aguilera, a humble pastor who admired the flight of hawks and eagles, built a mechanical bird of iron and was launched in vacuum Coruna del Conde. But it was seriously wounded in the experiment and his family forbade him try again.

Also the Catholic Church has been interested in the conquest of the heavens. In the same year, a Brazilian priest of 42 years died while trying to beat the record for sustained flight, grabbed 1,000 balloons in celebration.

Now, everyone can be a witness saw a man flying through 'National Geographic Channel and its Web www..es. Both the adventure of Rossy transmitted in its entirety since its start in Calais (France) until landing at Dover (UK).

The adventure will be collected in a special program entitled 'Jetman', in which Rossy will cross the 37 miles in a record time of 12 minutes, propelled only by an engine at a speed of 190 km / h. The pilot, who calls himself 'Fushion Man', will try to achieve this milestone in aviation history by jumping from a plane to more than three miles high.

The 'big sister' of the kitchen

Grate lemon, beat eggs and flour sprinkled like any chef on TV, but have little to do with Arguiano and company: do not leave their residence to record its agenda. In fact, they never leave the Franciscan convent Conceptions of Segovia. Nuns are closing.

Outside world, one that Sister Beatrice and Sister Liliana never step on the notes through Canal Cocina. Despite the big sisters do not leave, the secrets of their desserts are already 'vox '. "It was a good opportunity to teach the contemplative life and for people to learn to develop our recipes, master and apprentice explain almost in unison. His television program, Bocaditos of heaven (every Tuesday at 9.30, 14.30 and 18.30 ), Made the call at the gate of the famous silent convent.

"For us it was not a star, but do the will of God, providing a service to the community as any other we have sent, since we depend on obedience," says Sister Beatrice, the most veteran. His Skill comes from cookers "of old mothers", a legacy still visible in the anachronistic boilers and a tiled without any stain that designer sets.

disciple, Sister Liliana, describes it: "It is more temperamental, as a good Spanish. I am a bit more peaceful." Liliana comes from Colombia and was always clear his vocation ... religious, no television.

-Presenting unique

"The duo seemed perfect: they are genuine and not remain a role. Sister Liliana is very didactic, has no qualms with the camera. And occasionally Sister Beatriz correct it: 'It lacks two minutes!" , Says Mandi Ciriza, director of Canal Cocina, which toured Spain in search of the ideal convent: "Almost no, and the few young sisters have to take care of the older".

Eight of the team recording the same number of nuns in the convent. "The day to day changed a bit, especially in the liturgical prayers," reminiscent of the presenters. While his companions prayed, a crucifix covered the preparation of pasta yolk, leaving divine.

TV

Closing

"Not only is a program of cooking. It is also a 'reality'," explains Ciriza. In what it takes to bake the donuts (time that other chefs would seize to tell a couple of jokes), Sister Beatrice and Sister Liliana presented a video of the community singing, praying or playing basketball.

Although their

COFI and did the cooking times of hats, Sister Liliana, and Sister Beatrice have been more difficult than the competition: "We did not know anything about what was to stand in front of a camera. We had to repeat the nerves" . Nor were confident their image to the make-up. "I just miss them some dust from the glare," says Ciriza.

The end, took the controls of the program. So who are prevented even on the autographs: "If one day come to our monastery, very happy we are, as it did not cost us anything," Sister Liliana adventure.

Have already been delivered three of the 13 chapters, recorded by stealth. "The Mother Superior agreed, but begged us that this is not a revolution," said Ciriza, who has devoted 20 years to reality TV.

While it rules out, the haven of peace 'Bocaditos of heaven' has only one risk: the gluttony. "We hope not, especially now that we all take care of their line. Our recipes are homemade and not carry preservatives; can enjoy without being disturbed."

NYT: Georgia has found evidence that Russia is "the first". The West is not convinced, but deals

In the dispute, Georgia and Russia on who unleashed the war in the Caucasus, there is increasing intelligence. A month later, after the war, Georgia issued a record intercepted telephone conversations, which, according to Tbilisi, show that even for the day to the Georgian attack on Tskhinvali in South Ossetia became a Russian armored vehicles. Thus the Georgian government is trying to persuade the West and their own opposition that Georgia was the victim of invasion and went to attack in self-defense, writes The New York Times (Full text on the site InoPressa.ru).

According to the Georgian Minister of Internal Affairs Vano Merabishvili, interceptions of conversations Georgian intelligence had been reported in a few hours after the recording was made. The information was handed over to Saakashvili, who took it as a sign of a Russian invasion.

"These intercepted recordings show that Russia has deployed troops first, and we defend," - declares director of the group analyzing intelligence at the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Georgia, Shota Utiashvili.

- NYT is transferred to the Ossetian
- Russia explains the intelligence data on the "pre-war" troops "normal rotation"
- Media: Russian troops entered South Ossetia before the outbreak of hostilities

In turn to the question, why talk released only now, after more than a month, the head of the Georgian Ministry of Internal Affairs explained that during the war file with records lost when the track team moved its operations from Tbilisi, the capital, the city of Gori in central Georgia.

The Georgian authorities reported that last week provided the materials the United States and France, at that time presiding over the EU.

The White House carefully reviewed the record and called the "plausible", indicating that the transfer of Russian troops on Georgian territory occurred earlier than previously acknowledged. At the same time, the U.S. government believe that these data do not lead to definitive conclusions about the aggressive intentions of the Russian side.

Nevertheless, the approval of Georgia on the movements of Russian troops in part supported by western intelligence on which the two Battalion 135 Regiment went through the tunnel in South Ossetia or night, August 7, or the early morning of August 8. In addition, the Russian garrison stationed on the border with South Ossetia have been given Motorized unit and mandated to monitor the northern end of the tunnel, argues Western intelligence.

NYT also mentions the material newspaper "Krasnaya Zvezda" (the official organ of the Ministry of Defense of Russia), which contains the words of Captain 135 th Regiment Denis Sidristogo, that the August 7, the parts were ordered to stop teaching and go to Tskhinvali. Later, in connection with the emerging attention to the publication appeared changes: in fact, the alleged transfers occurred in Tskhinvali on 8 August. New York Times notes that contact with the captain Sidristym editorial failed.

NYT is transferred to the Ossetian

Editorial New York Times also obtained a copy of Georgia audio intercepted conversations. After this newspaper hired an independent specialist in Russia on Ossetian and made its own independent translation from the original Russian to and from Russian into English.

"Look, armored vehicles arrived or what?" - Asked a Chief of Staff border guards at the border guard named Gasiev, Dezhurov from the tunnel, in a conversation, which, according to the Georgian side and cellular operator, was intercepted on 7 August at 03:52. "Armored Vehicles and people," - responded border. When asked whether they have passed through the tunnel, he replied: "Yes, 20 minutes ago. When I phoned you, they had already arrived."

The newspaper notes that the recorded conversations did not contain specific data on the number of armored vehicles or evidence that Russian forces at the time involved in the fighting.

The publication also provided copies of independent transfers calls to a number of representatives from the U.S. government and U.S. military that they commented on the recording. They cautioned that while dialogue was apparently taken from the original intercepted conversations on cellular phones, it is impossible to conduct a full or formal analysis, not access the file records of negotiations, collected the Georgian side. They also noted that Washington continues to carefully examine the issue of provocation and response during the conflict. "We continue this study, both in the context of our intelligence analysis, and based on the data that we receive from the field. We were unable to determine who" shot John "- who fired first," - said a senior NYT U.S. military agreed to discuss the matter on condition of anonymity.

Russia explains the data pre-war intelligence about the troops "normal rotation"

Russia, of course, trying to refute the allegations of Georgia, writes the NYT. Last week, Prime Minister Vladimir Putin expressed his perplexity at the fact that the West, in his view, is inclined to believe in the Georgian version of events.

Attack of the Georgian side took Russia by surprise when President Dmitry Medvedev committed cruise on the Volga River, Putin was at the Olympics in Beijing, and Defense Minister - rested somewhere in the Black Sea, assured the Russian Lieutenant-General Nikolai Uvarov, a former military attache at the UN.

However, Russia does not dispute the authenticity of telephone conversations, but trying to diminish their significance, arguing that the movement of troops in the enclave before the war was part of the normal rotation and replenishment of the peacekeeping force, stood there for a long time.

Military equipment is regularly included in South Ossetia or leaving through the provision of the deployment of Russian peacekeeping contingent, explained Uvarov. "Because we kept it one battalion, it needed fuel and food. Of course, the movement of troops took place - he said. - But it was not acting Army soldiers who were sent there specifically to fight" . Uvarov added: "Whether it is large reinforcements, we would not have lost to South Ossetia, about 15 peacekeepers."

But Georgia argues that under the peacekeeping mission, which both sides signed in 2004, the rotation of Russian peacekeeping battalion could take place only during daylight hours and with prior notice of at least a month. However, in this case, no notification had been told the newspaper representative of Georgia Shota Utiashvili.

The U.S. Army is developing methods of "thought control by force" of its military

The U.S. Army has entered into a contract for 4 million dollars from the company, which has developed "telepathic helmets" for silent reading impulses in the brain and secret communications between military personnel. The U.S. military expects will eventually provide "direct telepathic management of military equipment solely by force of thought," writes Time.

Increased computer power and penetration in the mechanisms of the brain led scientists to vigorously work to identify the characteristics of neurological signals that float in the brain when a person mentally talks with itself. Initial military task is to intercept those signals with the help of incredibly intricate software, which then converts them into audio message on the radio, addressed to other soldiers on the battlefield.

"This will without a radio microphone - explains director of the program, a military researcher, Dr. Elmar Shmeysser neurophysiology. - As the war has been trained to express clear, unambiguous and stereotyped expressions, this step until the ability to think in the same way." (Full text on the site InoPressa.ru.)

The device, developed by the military, will receive tangible embodiment (not to mention its practical application) may only 10-20 years. The contract for 5 years, which the army last year concluded with the tender winner - a group of scientists from several universities (the University of California at Irvine, Carnegie Mellon University and the University of Maryland), aims to "decode brain activity, so the military can transmit by radio orders from one or many military comrades, just let out the order to himself and to think about who it wants to give.

Initially the "recipient" will probably hear in your headphones synthesized voice, credit reports, but scientists hope to eventually develop a version where the orders would be credited votes to who they prefer, and indicate the degree of remoteness and the location of the speaker on the listener, says U.S. magazine.

"Give the military the ability to communicate among themselves, while maintaining complete stillness - is invaluable, it is important for fighting, and to reduce the combat losses - the application for applicants contract, which amounted to war last year. - In doing so, you revolutionary technology silent communication and focus on areas which by their nature invincible for the sound and light from outside sources. "

The main difficulty - how to develop software that can understand the brain signals corresponding to speech, said publication. These impulses captured system of 128 sensors, which eventually will be built into the helmet. The sensors record the weak electrical charge generated by neural circuits the brain when we think. At the exit produced electroencephalogram - tangled ground lamb on the screen, which researchers will study to identify the signals that are key to communication.

"We believe that we can teach the computer to understand these scribble so that it reads the orders that your brain pays mouth and lips," - explains Shmeysser. Unfortunately, this is not about how to find the only correct of lamb. "There is no" golden neuron, which would be responsible for it "- shows a scientist.

Research project leader Dr Mike Dzmura from the University of California at Irvine said that his task - like finding the correct "Thread" in full plate of macaroni. "We need to highlight important fragments of spaghetti - he explains - and sometimes they have to break and join other". But because the power of computers has been growing steadily, the task can deal in "real time", he said.

In addition, users will have to learn to think 'out loud. " "How can we force the man away to himself any idea in a way that EEG signal was very clear and we are opposed to it from the background noise?" - Wondered Dzmura. Finally, because everyone EEG has its own users' telepathic helmets "will have to undergo special training to computers, intercept their silent orders, to recognize the unique characteristics of each thought, concludes the publication.

Gazprom paid terminated top managers of 132 million rubles smart

Generous compensation for former "daughter" of RAO UES of Russia "has little to surprise anyone. In 2007, prior to their sale, RAO has approved the "golden parachutes" for the heads WGC and TGC: wants a new shareholder to dismiss the old team - albeit paid, write in Monday Vedomosti. With the highest payments ran Gazprom. In spring Mosenergo to part with four top managers, paying them 94 million rubles.

The company did not even have enough money to own these payments, had to borrow (WGC now with the former leadership).

And now a new record of the WGC-6 - 132.3 million rubles. Compensation dismissed, the company said in a report of 1 st half of IFRS. And this is only the payment of June, who had two top managers - former director Valentin Sanko and his deputy Alexei Selyakovu, said the manager of Gazprom and a DC-6, with representatives from the companies declined to comment.

For comparison, the publication gave an example: 130 members of the Project Center at the conclusion of the reorganization of RAO (closes case before 1 January 2009) of separation divide 108 million rubles.

45-year-old Sanko in 2005, led by WGC-6, previously worked for 11 years, first in "Vologdaenergo, then in its management company - SEUK. A 49-year-old Selyakov since 1998 has been his constant of economy and finance.

Unlike managers WGC-2, Gazprom agreed payments for Sanko and Selyakova, argues the manager of the group. Although the new job, he has not yet been found, the dismissal was a surprise - "emergency airfield is not prepared."

"I was unpleasantly surprised by the letter regulatory committee, which came to me yesterday. It turns out procedural committee categorically opposed to the new system" Rada "worked" - Yatsenyuk said at a press conference.

"I'm looking for the answer: Why? Do not want to go to work? Da will still be going," - said the Speaker. "Until such time as long as I am chairman of the parliament, I will do everything to ensure that the system" - stressed Yatsenyuk.

This decision was taken after the experiment conducted by journalists during a press tour to reconstruct the hall of parliament. The experiment showed that with some skills with one hand while you can touch and press a button and the button to vote.

Before the experiment, one of the developers system explained that for the start of deputies must vote to press the button on the touch panel, and then the very button to vote. According to him, buttons need to hold until the voting.

According Yatsenyuka, after increasing the distance between the button and touch-button voting deputy in the parliament decision will be forced to use two hands, making it impossible to vote for a colleague.

OPEC decided to reduce oil production

Ministers of member countries of OPEC at a meeting in Vienna, which ended on the night of 10 September, decided to more strictly adhere to previously established quotas for oil production, which would mean reducing the real level of its production by about 500 000 barrels per day.

The decision to change OPEC production was a surprise: Against this backdrop futures price of oil on the New York Mercantile Exchange on Wednesday took off at 1.4% - up to 104.67 dollars per barrel, the agency Bloomberg. Before the session of OPEC prices, in contrast, declined.

The countries-members of the organization, referring to the excess of supply over demand of oil on the world market, decided to strictly adhere to the level of mining in 28.8 million barrels per day, said the communiqu adopted. It is at 520 000 below the real production and corresponds to the July 1% of total world production of raw materials.

The new quota takes into account the suspension of membership in OPEC Indonesia, the share which stood at 865 000 barrels per day. Entering the new quotas will happen within 40 days.

Iran and Venezuela expressed at the meeting to take action to support prices, which fell on July compared with a record level of more than 30%. In their view, there is oversupply in the market. This time, their position is, apparently, found support from other countries, including the largest oil producer - Saudi Arabia, reported Interfax.

"Everything that is happening shear said sentiment on the market, posing a risk of deterioration in the forecast for world oil market," - OPEC statement said.

Demand for oil fell substantially this year in the U.S. and Europe. There are also signs of slowing demand growth in China.

The Wall Street Journal writes that all members of organizations believe and intend to maintain an acceptable level of prices around 100 dollars per barrel.

OPEC announcement was a surprise to many because in anticipation of the ministerial meeting of the majority of producer countries, especially representatives of Saudi Arabia, described the world oil market as "balanced" and "healthy".

However, the OPEC president said Shakib Helen on September 10 that world oil prices, despite the decision to reduce production organization can continue to decline. "There is overproduction, and all agree with that," - he said.

The share of countries belonging to the organization, accounts for about 40% of world oil supplies.

In recent months, OPEC increased production, much of this growth went to Saudi Arabia, which in June and July, raised production by 500 thousand barrels a day.

Supported Georgia has accused Russia analyst at deception.

"Wonderfully prepared and conducted by the Russian information operations campaign was an attempt to activate the actions of Georgia as an unprovoked aggression and accuse Georgia of" genocide and war crimes, "- the report says Kagan presented to them on Tuesday at a hearing in the U.S. Congress.

Keygan is a sharp critic of action in Georgia and Russia in his speech to U.S. lawmakers told them that law enforcement actions the Russian side in this conflict have had a massive promotional information support.

-- U.S. Congressman calls on Russia to cease harassment

"It was generally just amazing to witness" "information operations campaign, which waged a Russian, trying to convince the world that 19 thousand Georgian soldiers represented a threat to the very existence of the Russian empire," - he said.

The American analyst said that throughout the armed conflict, he was immersed in studying the Russian press, public statements by Russian officials in the press, as well as statements by officials of South Ossetia, Abkhazia and Georgia.

"I saw in the fact that the Russian exercise very massive media operation that puts to conceal what really happens" - said the expert.

Kagan works in the Washington conservative American Enterprise Institute and known, in particular, that is the developer plan to change tactics and increase the number of U.S. troops in Iraq, which is being implemented now, U.S. President George W. Bush.

Meanwhile, chairman of subcommittee on foreign organizations to the House of Representatives of the U.S. Congress-Democrat Congressman Bill Delahant said that one-sided information about the situation around South Ossetia, which receive the Americans, including congressmen, leads to the fact that the U.S. engaged in constant attacks on Russia.

"Here there is imbalanced perspective, and for me it sounds like harassment of Russia (Russia bashing)", - Congressman said, according to which "the American people and members of the U.S. Congress do not receive fair and balanced picture".

Recalling that in the U.S. all the time called Russia an aggressor, Delahant expressed surprise at the fact that, for the actions of the Georgian side is "looking as a desire simply wished away line that they made a mistake, that it was a tactical error by brute Georgia ".

U.S. Congressman called on to represent Russia to stop the aggressor: the Georgians entered the YUO

Unilateral information on the situation around South Ossetia, which receive the Americans, leads to the fact that the U.S. engaged in constant attacks on Russia, but "the American people and U.S. members of Congress do not receive fair and balanced picture," said subcommittee chairman on foreign organizations Congress U.S. House of Representatives Congressman-Democrat Bill Delahant.

Speaking Tuesday at a hearing in Congress on the situation in Georgia, Delahant reported that lawmakers provided information about what's happening around South Ossetia "a lot of black and white description" and that Georgia and its President Mikhail Saakashvili served only in a positive light.

"We hear here today and read in newspapers that democracy is flourishing in Georgia, but in our own report on human rights in Georgia have (information) that the record power Saakashvili is not very positive - there occurred suppression of the opposition, were the closure of media, and let us not think that we were here only because it is a small country, which has a democratic impulse, "- cites words Congressman.

Recalling that in the U.S. all the time called Russia an aggressor, Delahant said that this was composed of Georgians in South Ossetia, and expressed surprise that the act applied to the Georgian side is "looking as a desire simply wished away line that they made a mistake that it was a tactical error by brute Georgia. " "At the same time, reports from South Ossetia, you read that people have been killed and corpses that are not clear, because the fear was that if civilians come into the street, Georgian soldiers kill them," - said the head subcommittee.

In his view, Washington should reply to the question of who is in this situation, Georgian President Mikhail Saakashvili. "Saakashvili is the killer? Was he a murderer during the elections, when it closed television stations and a police officer when sending special forces? Who is Saakashvili? We know that he has very good links in Washington, we know that Georgia is very effective lobbyists , Mr. Shunemann "- said Delahant, bearing in mind Randy Shunemanna - a senior foreign policy adviser to Republican presidential candidate U.S. Senator John McCain, who until the spring of this year was the official lobbyists interests of the Georgian government in the United States.

According to Delahanta, the administration of George W. Bush warned Georgia that it shall not enter into military conflict in South Ossetia, but the Georgian leadership to Washington's call not heeded. "And for that we are going to reward their cheque for $ 1 billion? - Asked Congressman-Democrat. - I do not want to issue a cheque for one billion dollars meant to whom, it seems to me, there are serious questions about his judgement. Are we be allies of who, no doubt, this administration has ignored that it is supported? "

Day one of the Georgia-South Ossetia military conflict
