While Ukraine claims it is not going to join NATO, Georgia is a country which would still love to join the alliance, despite how unlikely the chances are now of it occurring.

The country should have plenty of resources, as newly released figures show Tbilisi is spending more than any other post-Soviet country on building up its military.

Political analyst Vladimir Kozin says that it is alarming in the face of recent provocative actions from Georgia.

“NATO member countries, the majority of them, are rearming Georgia beyond any rationality,” Kozin told RT. “Against whom? Against us, or against Abkhazia or South Ossetia? But we are looking at these developments with great suspicion and concern, especially after Imedi provocation. This kind of provocation and huge rearmament means something.”

“They would like to regain these territories and, by the way, in this move Tbilisi has been strongly backed by Washington and by Brussels – I mean Brussels as NATO headquarters,” Vladimir Kozin added.

The creeps of NATO and the US exist and they are not going away. There is no point in isolating Russia from Europe and the US as that is exactly what the US wants. America doesn't like to share. When put in a prison with rats then rats is what you have to deal with. Not all of NATO are rats, just like not all of Europe are anti Russian. Greece, France, even Germany are not hard line anti Russian like the UK, Poland, Estonia etc. Deal with anyone, learn who you can trust and who you can't and keep an open mind. It is in your own interests to deal with anyone because trade benefits Russia. Just don't do any favours for nothing.

Since all orders for creating problems to Russia come from Washington and Brussels; will you please explain why Misters Medvedev, Putin and Lavrov insist on keeping the dialogue with those creeps US-NATO imperialists. They must understand that the capitalist's goal is the total control of Russia's natural resources and imposition of the "great" American way of life. For that purpose, an helping hand from corrupt Russians is acceptable and requested... Will it not be better and a concrete hope for mankind to refer toward a good example coming from the BRICS' states. Sorry Future generations. Sincerely... Jean-Claude Meslin
