Friends! As you have probably noticed, since 7th of August our web site is in a regime of constant covering of events in Georgia. Mostly at the expense of news from Belarus.
But we consider that spreading of truthful information about Russian-Georgian military conflict today is the main task of any news resource, supporting ideals of freedom and justice. Unless world will know what is going on in Caucasus, unless Kremlin can see that people all over the world feel with people of Georgia, tanks of invaders can be in Minsk by tomorrow.
