Behind the Poti Lines, a blog by Radio Free Europe / Radio Liberty, reports on the recent visit by the Georgian president to the Russian-occupied port. The blog also notes that Russian soldiers are keeping interaction with residents to a minumum and no longer buying bread and vodka from local shops in the town. Poti is operating at 35 percent of its capacity because of the Russian bombing and occupation. Increasingly resembling a ghost town, local residents meet at people's homes rather than on the streets.
