(In the Caucasus, memories are as old as history. In the 1990s, people who had been under Russian Soviet subjection for 70 years took up left-behind arms and continued their ethnic wars from centuries ago.)

Other headlines: Armenians violate ceasefire with Azerbaijan; Azerbaijan warns Armenia against targeting civilians; Washington voice concern over growing tensions in Nagorno-Karabakh; Baku blames Yerevan for insecurity in region.

Also, Georgia has given Ukraine much humanitarian medical aid, and Russia has cut wheat exports to Georgia. Georgia receives about 90 percent of its imported wheat from Russia.
