Victims of Georgia's attack on South Ossetia in August 2008 may now have an EU-approved document on their hands if they want their cases to be heard at the international criminal court in The Hague.
On Thursday the European Parliament supported the findings of a special report which says Georgia “triggered the war” with heavy artillery attack on Tskhinval.
It adds that this attack was not an isolated event, but the culmination of years of mounting tensions, for which all sides bear responsibility.
Members of the parliament also voted to increase and further support the EU mission in the Caucasus.

ROAR: NATO finds its new “mission” in missile defense shield for EuropeThe Western alliance may see Moscow as a partner in a missile defense program, but analysts warn that joining any European or transatlantic security systems may threaten Russia in the future. |
We, Russians, have always known who was the aggressor in 2008. I wish to McCain to remember, "We all are Georgians today", and know that he never will be the US president ))
So the EU is writing a report that in which numerous EU states where clearly involved in a pre-planned attack co-ordinated with Georgia supplying Georgia with massive amounts of weaponry just prior to the Georgian assault and NATO exercise just prior to the attack and the fact that MPRI forces where training Georgian forces in sabotage attacks. If you want to know what really happened in Georgia and why the war started just go back to Krajina and Operation Storm in 95 which included staging attack to provoke a response and staged false flag attacks amongst its own forces for pretext of the invasion of Krajina. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AIh8_UJrOGc http://www.slobodan-milosevic.org/news/smorg042409.html
Saakashvili is not deterred by reality or truth. He simply goes on spreading, at every opportunity, the Big Lie that Russia invaded Georgia. This is sort of like the Big Lie that is being spread about Estonia being sympathetic to nazism. Repeat a Big Lie long enough and uninformed, as well as naive, people begin to believe it.
