SHEVARDNADZE: FOUR RUSSIAN WARSHIPS NOT ENOUGH.

Georgian president Eduard Shevardnadze said yesterday that the four warships Russia has agreed to provide the Georgian Navy would not make up for the vast amount of former Soviet military equipment that Moscow had withdrawn from Georgia. Shevardnadze charged that no other former republic had been treated in this manner and pledged to do all he could to redress what he sees as an injustice. (Russian media, October 20)
