12 Points for Singing and a Bullet for Presidents! or La vita e bella!

Original: 12 Points for Singing and a Bullet for Presidents! or La vita e bella!

While Georgian young contestants were getting 12 points for their performance and finally became the winners of Junior Eurovision song contest 2008, Shots have been fired near a motorcade carrying the Georgian and Polish presidents. MR Kaczynski, who visits Georgia more often then his own home city in Poland (I guess) was visiting Sakartvelo due to the marking of the fifth anniversary of the Rose Revolution that swept Mr Saakashvili to power. No injuries were reported in the incident, close to a checkpoint near Georgia's rebel South Ossetia region. Georgian officials said the shots came from inside South Ossetia. But Russia and South Ossetia denied the claim. So, here we go, the same stories of blames, to be continued....
BBC reporting:

President Mikhail Saakashvili and his g of the cortege do not correspond with reality," a Russian spokesman was quoted as saying by Interfax news agency.

"A shelling of the cortege by our servicemen is completely out of the question."

Russian state media also reported South Ossetian denials that shells had been fired at the convoy.

"The South Ossetian side has nothing to do with it," said South Ossetian spokeswoman Irina Gagloyeva told RIA Novosti. "There was no shelling from our side."
