Saakashvili has a taste for tiesThe nervous Georgian President revealed an odd little habit – he apparently likes munching his neck tie while speaking on the phone. A BBC camera caught Mikhail Saakashvili doing a spot of tie chewing. |
What a weirdo. Seems like Saakashvili is no longer mentally fit to lead Georgia.
I really hope Russia will never bomb Tbilisi! Let us see who wins the next elections in Georgia. If Saakashvili's party should win and form the next government, too, I think Russia should consider to rebuild normal relations despite concerns. Maybe the Christian Churches of Russia and Georgia can help to restart friendly relations, as far as I know, they were not involved in any conflict, and Christians use to be "experts" in forgiving!
If Russia really wanted to bomb Tiblisi they had every opportunity in 2008. The reality is that the only problem between Russia and Georgia is Saakashvili. Once he is gone I doubt Russia and Georgia will be best buddies, but at least they will have normal relations. Can't see South Ossetia or Abkhazia ever wanting to be part of Georgia though.
