U.S. Vice President Dick Cheney condemned Russia on Thursday for what he called an «illegitimate, unilateral attempt» to change Georgia's borders by force, according to AP. Speaking during a closely watched trip to this U.S.-allied South Caucasus nation, Cheney also assured Georgian President Mikhail Saakashvili that the United States was «fully committed» to his country's efforts to join NATO. «Georgia will be in our alliance,» Cheney said.
