Yeah, September 30 was Independence Day for Abkhazia and tragic and mourning day for all the Other parts of Georgia.
Moscow Mayor Yuri Luzhkov, the highest profile Russian politician attended Abkhaz Independence Day festivities and claimed that Russia has "always" supported Abkhazia. "We are always together!" he declared to thunderous applause.  How interesting it is, I remember Russia "always" supported sovereign and united Georgia, >Posters of Russian President Dmitry Medvedev, Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin and Vladislav Ardzinba, the first president of the breakaway region Abkhazia, are available at a street vendor in Sukhumi on Sept. 30, the territory?s self-proclaimed Independence Day.
