That's over the top. Russia is completely pathetic when it comes to human rights but... it never has been. I mean from the Tsars to the commies, Russia has long been a powerful country built on people with weak rights.... By the way, the reason Russia pushed further into Georgia is to prevent Georgian incursions.. the same reason goaleys usually aren't right in front of the net but a little forward. The stories of Russians promoting rebels may/may not be true, don't take it for granted. The georgian army was shelling towns..killing civilians.... And the Russians, whatever their motives, and im sure they were self-interest, put a stop to the chaos fast. |
Sure they were. Because the Georgian sepretists shelled first. And broke the treaty first.
Because Russia wanted the entire thing to happen in the first place. The breakoff groups knew there were 1 of 2 choices the georgians could make.
Let them selves keep getting shelled and do nothing. Or attack and provoke the russians.
