Russia: We'll Meet Georgia Withdrawal Deadline

 CBS News Interactive: Russia-Georgia Conflict

  Russian President Dmitry Medvedev says that Russian peacekeeping forces will leave Georgia buffer zones around Abkhazia and South Ossetia by midnight Wednesday.

Medvedev praised the role of the European Union in the Georgia crisis at a conference in the French spa Evian on Wednesday.

Dozens of Russian armored personnel carriers, trucks and transport vehicles were rolled north on a main road leading through a buffer zone from Georgian-controlled territory into South Ossetia.
