A Georgian baby holds a national Georgian flag during a demonstration outside the European Commission headquarters in Brussels May 6, 2008. Several hundred people urged the European Union to influence Russia to not interfere in Georgian affairs. Georgia is "very close" to a war with Russia, Georgian State Minister for Issues of Reintegration Temur Iakobashvili said on Tuesday at a news briefing during a trip to Brussels, citing Moscow's decision to send extra troops to the breakaway Georgian region of Abkhazia.
