Russian troops 'putting on peacekeeper hats'

Russian troops have begun a modest withdrawal from Georgia, but are "just changing hats" to make themselves look like peacekeepers, Georgia's Interior Ministry said Friday.

Russia says its remaining forces are peacekeepers who will have pulled back into buffer zones outside two breakaway Georgian provinces, South Ossetia and Abkhazia, by late Friday.
Russia also accused Georgia of violating a cease-fire, partly by conducting operations into South Ossetia earlier this week. Georgia denied the accusation.
