Ella Rakhmetova, an Abaza, lives in a house in the village of Krasny Vostok with no running water. She’s forced to use a well in the next street.

“My brother moved to Abkhazia three years ago and everything is working out for him there,” she said. “He has even started his own small business. My husband and I want to move there next year.”

Rakhmetova said that she would have left earlier if she had been able to sell her house. The choice for the Abaza, a small minority in the Russian autonomous republic of Karachai-Cherkessia, is increasingly clear. “Now Abaza ...

Abkhaz talk of war as Tbilisi calls for end to Russian peacekeeping mission

By Irakly Lagvilava in Ganmukhuri, Dmitry Avaliani in Tbilisi and Inal Khashig in Sukhum (CRS No. 417 01-Nov-07)

The Georgian opposition, while supporting the pullout of the Russians in principle, questioned the timing of the announcement just ahead of a major opposition rally in the Georgian capital Tbilisi.

The Abkhazian soldiers will possibly arrive safely at their country on Sunday.

The Georgian court of law sentenced the Abkhazian captives to five years in prison when they were kept as captives.
