Protests against Russian intervention in Georgia

Some 50 people gathered in the centre of Prague to protest against the Russian intervention in Georgia. Other protests against Russian policy are also being held elsewhere in Europe at the occasion of the EU summit in Brussels on Russian-Georgian conflict.

Speaking ahead of the EU summit on Monday, Czech Prime Minister Mirek Topolánek said the situation in Georgia was serious and the country needed an immediate economic aid. The Czech Prime Minister made the comment after meeting his Georgian counterpart Vladimir Gurgenidze.
