The US former ambassador to the UN, John Bolten, has visited Georgia, and has stated that the so-called cleansing of the Ossetians and Abkhazians was done by Russian surrogates, not Georgians, and that the Georgian attempts at intervention were then used as a pretext for invasion. The Georgians separately charge that Russian passports were issued to an awful lot of Georgian citizens without their consent or their knowledge.
