Nino got scared

Speaker of the Georgian parliament Nino Burjanadze said at a meeting in St. Petersburg that Georgia will not prevent Russia from joining the WTO if Russia respects the principles of this organization. She recalled that the WTO is based on the principles of free trade and free movement of goods and financial resources. Yes, hardly anyone would dare to call the economic relations between Georgia and Russia “free”. Burjanadze also reported that State Duma Speaker Boris Gryzlov refused to meet with her. And twice.
