What do you think about Russian-Georgian case?

Question

excuse me for my poor english :-)

Answer 1

It was foolish of Georgia to attack Russian positions in South Ossetia, despite it being within its own territory. Obviously, they must have expected their special relationship with the U.S./EU to give them some leverage, and kept Russia at bay. Obviously this was not the case.

Despite this, the reaction by Russia is a clear indication that they are now a belligerent country, and are not concerned at all by the opinion of the international community so much that it does not affect their ability to sell their oil/gas.

European reaction has been mixed. Overall, I don't think they get it - but then again, they've never understood Russia. The inability for the EU to present any kind of a coherent front is beyond disturbing, and it demonstrates a huge weakness.  

Answer 2

Answer 3

Answer 5

Well theres no "Evil" and no "Good", just shades of grey, It was wrong for Georgia to attack, but also Russia pushed it a little too far, but the Georgians were punished and the Russian artillery has stopped, so thats a great thing. In my opinion though, I think Russia did the right thing to help

Answer 6
