2nd LD Writethru: Russia calls for urgent meeting with NATO over
South Ossetia
BRUSSELS, Aug. 11 (Xinhua) -- Russia is going to call for an
extraordinary meeting with NATO so that the alliance can be informed
of Moscow's activities in South Ossetia, said Russian Ambassador to
NATO Dmitry Rogozin on Monday.
"We insist it happen tomorrow when NATO ambassadors are going to
meet Georgian minister of foreign affairs," Rogozin told reporters.
Russia wants NATO to take into account the information given by
Moscow before the alliance makes any decisions or statements, he
said, adding that the meeting should be at the level of ambassadors.
