Aug 28 - The EU will consider sanctions against over Georgia, as Russia's allies fail to give support, and POWs are released.

EU leaders meeting in Brussels next week will consider sanctions against Russia over its conflict with Georgia and its recognition of separatist regions. It comes as a declaration signed by the leaders of Russia's Asian allies fails to give the Kremlin clear support in its stand-off with the West. Meanwhile, Russian peacekeepers have released more Georgian captive soldiers.
