It seems that Russia has North Ossetia and Georgia as South Ossetia. Russia is willing to cooperate with the North and South getting together to form their own country but Georgia is not cooperating. Regardless of history, it seems the Georgians are in the wrong here. They should cooperate with North Ossetia and South Ossetia forming their own country. Am I wrong?
LOL!
Their "own country"?
More than 90% of the Ossetians live in North Ossetia - which is part of Russia and is not an independent state.
If Russia really wanted to see an independent Ossetian state, they could let the Ossetians in Russia declare their independence. But, oddly, they don't.
450,000 Ossetians in Russia are apparently not enough to form a state, but the addition of 45,000 Ossetians in Georgia will magically make them large enough to form a self-sustaining state?
Please.
Russia calling for Georgia to allow an independent Ossetian state is like Spain calling on France to allow an independent Basque republic.
