Georgia claims Russia has been interfering with its affairs in South Ossetia. Alex Chadwick talks to Irakli Alasania, Georgia's permanent representative to the United Nations, about the conflict.
"The thing is ... we are dealing right now to be clear with two different things. One is the aggression and attack on the Georgian state, a full-scale invasion, which is going on against all of the principles of international law," Alasania says. "And the second ... is a humanitarian catastrophe that was ignited by this conflict. I mean, there are lots of civilian populations killed on both sides of this community: Ossetians and Georgians."
