BBC News: Shevardnadze says US betrayed him

Advertisements [?]

Hmmmm, isn't THIS interesting? And who was it that recently made a trip to Georgia? James Baker? Coincidence?

Ousted Georgian president Eduard Shevardnadze has accused the US of helping to remove him from power.

Mr Shevardnadze said he could not understand why he had been abandoned after giving Washington full support in foreign policy, including on Iraq.

His comments came as President George W Bush telephoned acting president Nino Burjanadze to say he was sending a delegation "to assess Georgia's needs".

He said he wanted to help her democratic and free-market reforms.
