A furious Kremlin is determined to bar Nato from its backyard but conflict will solve nothing

Posted by Matt in July 19th, 2008

In reality, the conflict between Russia and Georgia is not just about Abkhazia but about Russia’s lingering resentment at what it regards as Western encirclement. Following the end of the Cold war and demise of the Warsaw Pact, Russia believed it had an assurance from Nato and the West that there would be no expansion into Russia’s backyard. The opposite happened. Former Warsaw Pact countries rushed to join Nato. Georgia and Ukraine are the latest to seek entry. Russia’s political leadership and military establishment regard this as the final straw. If Georgia joins Nato’s membership action plan - possibly in 2009 - expect Moscow’s response to be nasty.

NATO warns Russia
http://therealnews.com/c.php?c=08081YT Western powers send tough message; Russian minister responds. NATO allies warned Russia on Tuesday that the alliance's cooperation with Moscow would depend on the pullout of troops from Georgia. They insisted Georgia remained on track to join NATO despite Moscow's opposition. The emergency meeting in Brussels highlighted a rift within the 27-nation bloc between former Soviet satellite nations wanting tough action against Russia and western European members warning against antagonizing Moscow. In an editorial from The Independent newspaper entitled "NATO is walking a tightrope over Georgia" Anne Penketh states that "[NATO] foreign ministers want to send a tough message to the Kremlin, but the big powers know that they cannot afford to isolate Moscow...

Russia warns NATO To leave the Black sea In 21 days or be
Russia warns NATO To leave the Black sea In 21 days or be attacked. MOSCOW, September 2 (RIA Novosti) - Prime Minister Vladimir Putin said on Tuesday Russia will respond calmly to the presence of NATO warships in the Black Sea. (Russia's Black Sea Fleet - Image gallery) "Our response will be calm, not hysterical, but there will definitely be a response," Putin said. NATO sent a number of ships, including U.S. warships, into the Black Sea after Russia completed its operation "to force Georgia to peace" on August 12. The operation came as a response to Georgia's attack on South Ossetia on August 8. The U.S. has delivered millions of dollars of what it says is humanitarian aid to its ally Georgia. Russia has however questioned the nature of the deliveries. "If the talk is about...

Ivan Canas: Russia warns NATO over build-up of warships in Black Sea. This video shows the arrival of two of them amongst protest in Turkey
Russia's military says it is bewildered by the build-up of NATO's naval force in the Black Sea -- and scoffed at claims the warships were delivering humanitarian aid. Deputy Chief of the Russian General Staff, Colonel General Anatoly Nogovitsyn, told a media briefing that there are currently ten NATO warships with cruise missiles in the area, and eight more are expected to arrive there shortly. "These ships are very seriously armed," Nogovitsyn said. "As far as cruise missiles are concerned, they are strategic arms and have a range of 2,500 km. The Black Sea is just a pool for them." The Colonel General added it's very hard to believe these ships have arrived just to bring humanitarian aid. He said the build-up was connected with Georgia's wish to restore its military potential and...
