Showdown?

Russia's Foreign Minister says the question of Georgia's territorial integrity is a dead issue, a sign that Moscow could absorb two separatist regions in the wake of recent fighting.

US demands that Russia get out of Georgia
“We expect Russia to meet its commitment to cease all military activities in Georgia and we expect all Russian forces that entered Georgia in recent days to withdraw from that country,” Mr. Bush said in a stern televised address from the White House.

“I have heard the Russian president say that his military operations are over. I am saying it is time for the Russian president to be true to his word,” Ms. Rice told a State Department news conference later.
