Georgia is clearly within any reasonably defined Russian sphere of interest.
Georgia is very small, and Russia is very big. Georgia needs to concentrate on getting along with Russia.
Our interests there are zero, or nearly so.
Disagree that our interests are nearly zero.Not saying we need to send troops there, albeit there are other supportive measures we can offer.
And I don’t believe anyone ‘gets along with Russia”; one just keeps their guard up and holds the line, at times ferociously.
