Independence for Kosovo may cause major challenges for Georgian diplomacy, Mikheil Saakashvili, president of Georgia, stated about that during presentation of a newly appointed Foreign Minister of Georgia - Davit Bakradze at the Ministry today, APA reports quoting Novosti-Gruziya.

“We should all understand that Georgia is in a very, very difficult period in terms of the foreign situation. The fact that the process of recognizing Kosovo will be launched next week means that our country will face a very serious storm. But our country, if we work well, will avoid any storms. It is possible if everybody understands that we are not the employees of one of the elite ministries, but we are soldiers, who should save the country”, Saakashvili said. Davit Bakradze said that solution to the conflicts will be the main priorities in the activity of Foreign Ministry in 2008. “We expect that independence of Kosovo will be soon recognized. It will cause major challenges for Georgian diplomacy. Our energy and resources should be directed to the solution of the conflicts,” he said. /APA/

I'd say you're right. But I'd also say he's right too.

It’s also going to lead to one hell of a showdown in Aztlan once the illegal aliens in the US realize what they can get away with.
