French Foreign Min Kouchner: 'We Fear War, Don't Want One' PARIS (AFP)--French Foreign Minister Bernard Kouchner told French television Tuesday: "*We fear a war* and we don't want one." Questioned about a statement by Russian President Dmitry Medvedev that Russia was not afraid of a new Cold War, Kouchner said, "If it's only cold, that's not a problem." "We fear a war and we don't want one," he told public France 2 television. "If it's hot, we don't want it." Kouchner also said Russian troops are about to "ethnically cleanse" the South Ossetia town of Akhalgori, which includes ethnic Georgians among its inhabitants, "tonight." "This is not acceptable," Kouchner said. In an interview with French LCI television, Russian President Dmitry Medvedev said Europe would be responsible for any deterioration in relations with Moscow. "If they want relations to worsen, they will get it," Medvedev said. "We will do everything we can to avoid" a new Cold War, he said. "In this situation, the ball is in the Europeans' court." The European Union and the United States Tuesday heavily criticized Russia's recognition of the rGeorgian provinces of Abkhazia and South Ossetia as independent states. -Dow Jones Newswires, 201-938-5500 Click here to go to Dow Jones NewsPlus, a web front page of today's most important business and market news, analysis and commentary: http://www.djnewsplus.com/al?rnd=Vuaqfr0k0EjFVgItPQ%2F8FA%3D%3D.

Upitan o izjavi ruskog predsednika Dmitrija Medvedeva da se ne plaši novog "Hladnog rata", iako ga ne želi, Kušner je rekao da nije strašno ako se ostane na tome da bude "hladan". "Strahuje se od rata i mi ga ne želimo", rekao je šef francuske diplomatije. Kušner je u intervjuu optužio ruske snage da tokom noći pripremaju "etničko čišćenje" u Gruziji, tako što će isterati gruzijsko stanovništvo iz grada Ahalgorija koji je posle ruske intervencije u Gruziji, prešao u ruke južnoosetijskih vlasti. "Priča se da će ove noći (između utorka i srede) ruske snage potiskivati ispred sebe, što je etničko čišćenje, gruzijsko stanovništvo prema Gruziji kako bi Osetija bila homogena", rekao je Kušner. On je rekao da je to "neprihvatljivo". Ahalgori ima oko 8.000 stanovnika i nalazi se severozapadno od Tbilisija. Područje Ahalgorija je u vreme Sovjetskog Saveza bilo deo Južne Osetije, ali više nije deo te oblasti koja je de fakto nezavisna od gruzijskih vlasti od početka 1990-tih godina i sada želi da se otcepi. Visoki komesarijat UN za izbeglice (UNHCR) saopštio je danas, navodeći izjave raseljenih, da oružane grupe u bezbednosnoj zoni pod kontrolom ruskih snaga duž Južne Osetije, primoravaju stanovništvo da beži. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ *Yahoo!
