EU warns Russia on its land grab mission – it now targets South Ossetia

Russia appears to be intent upon keeping tensions alive on its borders with its neighbors – the latest in this land grab mission appears to be a section of Georgia's de facto border with South Ossetia. Russia has redrawn this border and the EU has warned of increased tensions amidst these claims.
This has been reported in bbc.com dated 16 July 2015.

It seems Russian troops have put up signs marking the "state border" of the breakaway region of South Ossetia further inside Georgian territory. As a result, a small portion of the Baku-Supsa oil pipeline has gone under Russia's effective control. Russia has, of course, brushed off the accusations about its role.
Its troops have been patrolling the administrative border since the 2008 Russian-Georgian war over South Ossetia and an EU foreign policy spokesperson has revealed that the installation of new signposts had given rise to tension in the area. This is having negative effects on the local population, their livelihood and also freedom of movement.
Reports indicate that markers have been placed at least 300m (980ft) further south into Georgian territory and the new border is now just 500m away from Georgia's main highway that links the Black Sea to Azerbaijan.
