Georgia: Russian-Georgian News Item Translations

Exercises in Translation has started translating news items in Russian and Georgian on the conflict between Moscow and Tbilisi over Abkhazia and South Ossetia. In the two most recent posts, for example, the blog translates a news item on Russian president Dmitri Medvedev's interview to French TF-1 and a Georgian news item reporting that ethnic Georgians are leaving villages in the Gali district after the sound of gunfire came from Abkhaz positions celebrating Medvedev's decreee recognizing the independence of the two breakaway regions.
