Moscow police denied it had told schools to provide lists of Georgian students. "We did not issue any such instructions, nor do we plan to," police spokesman Valery Gribakin told Ekho Mosvky radio. Russia suspended transport and postal links with its southern neighbor on Tuesday. On Thursday, Moscow said it would abolish quotas allowing a certain number of Georgians each year to obtain residency and work permits. Several Georgian-run casinos and restaurants in Moscow have been raided and closed down for alleged regulatory violations. According to some estimates, around 1 million Georgians — more than a fifth of Georgia's population — work in Russia, and their families rely on the hundreds of millions of dollars (euros) in annual remittances sent home. Russian authorities say that more than half of Georgians in Russia are working illegally.
