The UN Security Council took no decision on Thursday regarding Russia-submitted resolution on Georgia, however Russian Ambassador Vitaly Churkin said the document can be voted any time after 24 hours.
Churkin said the main objection of some Security Council members was the absence of Georgia’s “territorial integrity” in the draft resolution.
He explained the document copied the six principles of the peace plan for Georgia agreed by Russian President Dmitry Medvedev and his French counterpart Nicolas Sarkozy.
“The explanation is easy, as the six principles of Medvedev-Sarkozy do not mention territorial integrity,” Churkin said.
The ambassador said the sixth principle call for international discussions of solid security guarantees to Abkhazia and South Ossetia and their resulting status.
“Some members do not want the six principles of Medvedev-Sarkozy to be approved by the UN Security Council,” Churkin said.
US Ambassador to the United Nations Alejandro Wolfe called to include “territorial integrity” into the resolution like it happened with all the previous documents on Georgia.
