Here is some info about the situation. (August 8, 2008)
First of all it is an aggression of Russia towards Georgia. As libertarian I can't accept any violence no matter who is the initiator. But the situation about Georgia is not usual to say there is a chance to survive without defense efforts, unfortunately.
Yes, we probably made several mistakes past times and my position is not changing - free trade is the best solution for this kind of conflicts if... If you have civilized neighbors, not like Russia. After today's statement of Russian party of Yabloko - supposed to be opposition, which stated that only solution is to send more Russian military troops to Georgia, I tend to suspect there is no chance to find any reason in Russia nearest time.
There is high tense in here but absolutely no panic so far. From the window of my office the picture is similar as it was a week or two ago. But the news coming are discouraging - Russians increase their support to their marionettes, sending more troops (official and inofficial), military equipment and tanks, bombing Georgian territory by military aircrafts, etc.
But, please don't worry, we are still absolutely calm, simply thinking we are not as weak, and the international society is not as same, as in 1921, when bolsheviks occupied Georgia.This is very shortly...
