EU Leaders to review Russia ties at summit
Russia warns it will respond to "aggression"
By Christian Lowe Sun Aug 31 MOSCOW (Reuters) -
Russia does not want confrontation with the West but will hit back if attacked, Kremlin leader Dmitry Medvedev said on Sunday, a day before EU leaders meet to draft a response to Moscow's actions in Georgia
British Prime Minister Gordon Brown said he would press fellow European Union leaders to review ties with Russia in retaliation for Moscow's decision to send troops to Georgia and recognize two Georgian breakaway regions.
But underlining the differences in approach inside the 27-member EU, German Foreign Minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier took a softer line, saying isolating Russia would harm the interests of the bloc.
A senior U.S. diplomat said Washington hoped the EU would express concrete support for Georgia's territorial integrity, and urged Europe to reduce its dependence on Russian energy.
Medvedev faces growing condemnation from the West, which accuses Russia of occupying parts of Georgia, while the Kremlin said it acted to prevent what it called genocide against the separatist regions.
"Russia does not want confrontation with any country. Russia does not plan to isolate itself," Medvedev said in an interview with Russia's three main television stations.
But he added: "Everyone should understand that if someone launches an aggressive sortie, he will receive a response." He said Russian law allowed the Kremlin to impose sanctions on other states, though it preferred not to go down that path.
GEORGIAN CALL
Georgia urged the European Union to impose sanctions against those doing business with the two separatist regions, authorize a civilian mission to monitor buffer zones around them and give Tbilisi about $2 billion to help to help repair damage.
"Europe can do a lot, starting with sending a mission of civilian monitors, which would lead to an international peacekeeping mechanism that would replace the presence of Russian troops," Prime Minister Lado Gurgenidze told Reuters in Brussels.
British Prime Minister Gordon Brown said Russia's intervention in Georgia was dangerous and unacceptable.
"In the light of Russian actions, the EU should review -- root and branch -- our relationship with Russia," Brown wrote in a comment published in Britain's Observer newspaper.
The German foreign minister said Moscow deserved criticism but Europe needed cooperation with Russia.
"Europe would only be hurting itself if we were to get full of emotion and slam all the doors shut to the rooms that we will want to enter afterwards," Steinmeier said.
Russia supplies more than a quarter of Europe's gas needs. Some observers say this makes tough EU sanctions unlikely.
Thousands of Georgians are expected to join a "human chain" in Tbilisi on Monday, with people joining hands through the capital in a show of unity.
Georgian President Mikheil Saakashvili, in an address to the nation, said he hoped the EU leaders would not "give up faced with this dirty attempt at aggression."
TEST OF UNITY
The emergency summit is a test of unity for the EU, which struggles to reconcile differences between states which want punitive action and others, including European heavyweights France and Germany, which favor a more calibrated approach.
It is likely to produce a "stern words-soft action" response from the EU, said Chris Weafer, Chief Strategist with Russia's Uralsib investment bank.
The bloc is likely to "stop well short of any action that might escalate into a damaging tit-for-tat sequence of economic and political sanctions," Weafer wrote in a research note.
Russia sent in its troops after Georgia's military tried to retake South Ossetia, like Abkhazia a Moscow-backed region which rejects Tbilisi's rule.
Moscow has pulled out most of its forces in line with a ceasefire deal but has kept soldiers and equipment in "security zones," which include undisputed Georgian territory around South Ossetia and Abkhazia.
Western governments have demanded that Moscow pull its troops back to pre-conflict positions. The Kremlin says the troops are peacekeepers needed to protect the separatist regions from new Georgian aggression.
In a last-minute round of diplomacy before Monday's emergency EU summit, both Medvedev and U.S. President George W. Bush spoke to Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi, who is seen as sympathetic to the Kremlin.
U.S. Assistant Secretary of State Matthew Bryza said it was up to the EU to decide what measures it adopts against Russia, but the bloc should throw its weight behind Georgia and make itself less dependent on Russian energy.
"What happened in Georgia shows even more why it is crucial that Europe begins to move more quickly to diversify its supply of gas," Bryza told Reuters on the sidelines of an international energy conference in Bled, Slovenia.

An Isolationist solution for the people of these United States
America’s traditional foreign policy,
bequeathed to us by a departing George Washington in his Farewell Address........
The President admonished us to avoid “foreign entanglements.”
He was talking about the entanglements that for centuries provoked European wars in his time and now in ours.
He urged us to be friendly to all other nations and hostile to none; to enjoy the unparalleled blessings and riches of our own country; and, more important than anything else, to mind our own business.
Of course the conspiracy for world government . . .
had and has other ideas.
In the 1930s, George Washington was still too formidable to run at directly, so, without mentioning him, they concocted the term “isolationist” to discredit someone who shared his beliefs.
In the world government lexicon, an “isolationist” is someone who pretends no other countries exist and will have nothing to do with them, who sticks his head in the sand and refuses to trade, this as we know is a LIE!
We should mind our own business.
And what about America’s futureIF--we allow legal and illegal immigration to add 100 million people into this country. Everything we take for granted today will not be there for future generations........
We should set an example.
We should explain that we are the greatest country on earth because of our system of Freedoms and that every other country could enjoy the same blessings if they install the same system.
"Normal people don't want impeachment"
I would venture to say that most Americans don't want a VP Removed from Office, but the Founding Fathers had good reason to make it part of the U.S. Constitution.
Dick Cheney should have been removed from office years ago, but the Democrats who care so much about the lives of our active military, have turned a blind eye since taking power.
Not only have they allowed this liar and deceiver to stay in office, they have continued to fund his unconstitutional, immoral invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq for political leverage.
The cowardly Democrats gave him free reign.....

That clause offers broad protection to members of Congress from prosecution for activity in furtherance of legislation -- but it's not a blanket immunity.
Nor is the separation of powers doctrine, which Stevens' attorneys cited in another motion seeking dismissal Thursday.
