The ODS has accused Russia of having used the conflict in South Ossetia to demonstrate strength on the territory of a different country, Vondra said. President Vaclav Klaus, the honorary chairman of the ODS, recently accused Georgian representatives of responsibility for the conflict, whereby he triggered a dispute with the coalition government led by Prime Minister Mirek Topolanek (ODS). "The executive council of the ODS is watching with concern the real objectives of the Russian aggression, Russia Retains Control Over Georgian Port as Tensions Increase ...

Russia warning over South Ossetia ...
Despite Russian wanrings, new shelling incident in Georgia ... which was the violation of Georgia's territorial integrity, the final secession of South Ossetia and Abkhazia and the replacement of President Mikheil Saakashvili's pro-Western government with a pro-Russian regime," the ODS says in its resolution.
Russian troops entered Georgia in early August after Tbilisi tried to dominate its province South Ossetia by force. "Georgia's rash reaction to the growing separatist tendencies in South Ossetia must not erase the fact that the development had been deliberately incited by Russia in the long run," the ODS added. Russia is against NATO's enlargement to Georgia and Ukraine. The USA and Germany want Georgia to join NATO.
