This is a more balanced item than the usual russo-centric bluster. The BBC aired interviews and commentary with Russian officials when possible, so it's up to Russia to be cooperative. Getting a visa to go visit Russia is such a daunting process that I had to conclude, after my first attempt via 'The Real Russia', London, that it would be easier to break out of Bellmarsh High Security Prison, London. A contrast to an EU working hard to have Russians come visit without need of a visa.

Besides, now I know for sure that S. Ossetians are just brainwashed, but there is great hope that they will reembrace true Georgian-Ossetian heritage and will joint their efforts to join European community. Please no more negativity. We all have Ossetian relatives and let's face the truth: our soceity is multiethnic.
