Wine war - Russia against Georgia.
If you want to find all kinds of stupidities in one case - take wine war issue of Russia (n Federation - is not it funny?) against Georgia. Who is wrong? Of course Russian politicians who, instead of population adicted to Georgian (or "Georgian") wines for long time, decided to limit import of Georgian wines to the Russian market.
In reality the government cares only about peasants who are producing grapes for the wines - their share in elections is not less then 10 % of all the electorate. This will be great failure before local elections.
As for wines - most of them are falsified. This is a answer to unqualified demand and everybody new about. Unfortunately the new generation of wine producers are not as strong as to fight for the markets and the main export is merely alcohol added color water with some aroma. This is the old story and so popular business that entrepreneurs from Bulgaria, Russia and even Spain found their way to make money in Russia (and Ukraine, Belarus, Lithuania etc) falsifying Georgian brend name wines.
'But what if RF joins the WTO?' There was a question asked the minister of agriculture of Georgia a year ago. 'It would be obliged to reduce tariffs for all imported wines and so Georgia would lose the Russian market in any case?' 'Unbelievable', was the answer. 'Russians love Georgian wine'.
Now you can consider how they love it. To believe in this was not so easy but let's see what part of Moscow youngster prefers to drive Russian cars, or what part of them use Russian TV or players. So wake up!
