US likely to help Georgia rebuild military

The United States expects to help Georgia rebuild its military following the conflict with Russia over breakaway South Ossetia, US General John Craddock said on Thursday.

"One would assume ... We would have to help them rebuild because they are a partner in the war on terror, they've been helpful. They are going to ask us, I am sure, to replace and rebuild," Craddock, who is also NATO's top operational commander in Europe, told reporters during a trip to Georgia. (AP)
