"Russia warned over Georgia move
Nato has warned Russia that its recent troop build-up in Georgia's
breakaway region of Abkhazia undermines its neighbour's territorial
integrity.

The alliance is "watching with concern" Moscow's moves, which a Nato
spokesman said were raising tensions in the area.

Moscow has accused Georgia of preparing to invade Abkhazia, and says
it is boosting Russian peacekeeping forces there and in the South
Ossetia region.

Tbilisi has described the Russian move as "irresponsible".

Nato spokesman James Appathurai said the Russian troop build-up was
"raising tensions" in the region.

He also urged both Moscow and Tbilisi to avoid harsh rhetoric.

The European Union has also appealed for caution, saying to increase
troop numbers would be unwise given current tensions."
