Moscow. Roman Agayev â€“ APA. â€œThe government in Georgia is under the control of the army and interior troops for now, but the question, who will take over the power, remains open. The rally may turn to a civil war, but we do not want to witness bloodshed,â€ president of â€œRussian Georgians Unionâ€ Public Organization Mikhail Khubutia told the press conference in Moscow, APAâ€™s Moscow correspondent reports. He said as the Georgians living in Russia are the citizens of this country, they can not interfere with the home affairs of Georgia. Mentioning Dmitry Medvedevâ€™s statement â€œRussia will not hold talks with Saakashvili governmentâ€ Khubutia said Russia-Georgia relations will not improve soon.
â€œThe only way out is to appeal to Russia, cancel censorship and stop anti-Russia propaganda in Georgia. All those who protest against Saakashvili now are â€œpocket oppositionâ€. None of them has a program to make an ordinary Georgian citizen rich and happy,â€ he said.
