US Senate condemns Russia's "disproportionate response" to Georgia

The US Senate has condemned Russia's "disproportionate military response" to Georgia, but recognized thus that mutual interests of the USA and Russian Federation can ensure "in due course" improvement of Russian-American relations.

"Irrespective of the reasons for the recent conflict in Georgia, the disproportionate military response of the Russian Federation against the sovereign and internationally recognized territory of Georgia, which includes the independent regions of South Ossetia and Abkhazia, is a violation of the international law and obligations of the Russian Federation", runs the text of the resolution unanimously passed by the Senate yesterday, the RIA "Novosti" reports.

"The USA recognizes the fact of essential common interests with the Russian Federation, including counteraction to spread of nuclear weapons arms and fight against terrorism, and these interests in due course can make the basis for better long-term mutual relations," the resolution emphasizes.

Having stated that Russia should immediately fulfil the ceasefire agreement, and also "to abstain in future from use of force for solving the issue of the status of South Ossetia and Abkhazia", the Senate has announced the need for the USA, the Europe, UN Security Council and OSCE to find, through political settlement, the solution of the problem of the "short-term and long-term status of Abkhazia and South Ossetia."
