Bush Says Breakaway Regions Must Remain Part of Georgia

CRAWFORD, Texas — President Bush said Saturday that the two disputed regions at the center of a conflict between Georgia and Russia must remain part of Georgia, but called the signing of a cease-fire between the two nations a "hopeful step."

Russia's president signed the cease-fire plan Saturday, a day after Georgia's president reluctantly agreed to the pact after lengthy talks with Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice.
Russian forces have since pulled back from the center of a town near the Georgian capital.
