Russian border guards are going to ensure safety on the border of South Ossetia, Abkhazia and Georgia by using advanced equipment: modern ships, border-guard cutters and other technical means.

This was stated today by Chairman of Coordination Service of the Border Troops Commanders Council of CIS General-Colonel Alexander Manilov, RIA Novosti reports.

"Today we are using most modern technical means, such as ships, cutters, radar optical and thermal image engineering; all these means will provide the safety of Abkhazia and South Ossetia in the context of the signed bi-lateral agreements", - he is cited by RIA Novosti.

"Everything required to perform the signed agreements is going to be realized; the border will be safely guarded in this location", - the general said.
