Nobody wants trouble and the [Western] politicians’ basic instinct is to keep trouble away, to ignore it or to pretend they don't see it and that it’s not real.

Lol... Saakashvili's basic instinct was to run and hide. Here he is 'keeping it real' on the streets of Tblisi when for no apparent reason he thought he was being attacked by a Russian aircraft.

Interesting article but Saakashvili deflects a lot. Of course the Russians goaded him into fighting.

The other thing I thought was poor was him bad mouthing Sarkozy. I read that Putin was so pissed off at Saakashvili he was getting ready to roll into the capitol and hang Saakashvili in the square. Sarkozy flew to Moscow and told Putin if he wanted to be a player with the big boys in the west (which he desperately does) that he needed to calm down and forget it and come to an agreement. Sarkozy likely saved Saakashvili’s neck.
