Saakashvili: US to take control of Georgian ports
President George W. Bush's pledge to send aid to Georgia means that the US military will take control of the ex-Soviet state's ports and airports, Georgian President Mikheil Saakashvili said on Wednesday.
"You have heard the statement by the US president that the United States is starting a military-humanitarian operation in Georgia," Saakashvili said in a television address. "It means that Georgian ports and airports will be taken under the control of the US defense ministry in order to conduct humanitarian and other missions. This is a very important statement for easing tension." (Reuters)
