U.S. allied Government of Georgia nervous about a quick ceasefire - Georgian troops hurriedly retreating from the breakaway province of South Ossetia
Media Release

The Georgian troops retreated from the breakaway province of South Ossetia on Sunday hurriedly as their U.S.-allied government ordered a cease-fire and pressed for a truce, overwhelmed by Russian firepower in a conflict that threatened to set off a wider war.
Georgia's Foreign Ministry said its soldiers were observing a cease-fire on orders of the president and notified Russia's envoy to Tbilisi.
"Georgia expresses its readiness to immediately start negotiations with the Russian Federation on cease-fire and termination of hostilities," the ministry said in a statement.
The Russian Foreign Ministry had no immediate response to the Georgian offer. It came as the U.N. Security Council — where Russia has veto power — met in an open session and European diplomats sought to mediate.
Georgia is worried that US troops and NATO will of no help if Russia plans to retake Georgia completely.
