If you’re talking about Georgia in 2008, they clearly provoked the Russian Federation into an armed response, and the resulting “invasion & occupation” lasted all of a fortnight, until the situation calmed down.

You’ll have to come up with some better examples to convince me the modern Russians have imperialist ambitions.

Boy, those guys in the Kremlin must get a chuckle how they play folks such as you like a fiddle.

Ukraine? Not Russia's fault.
Georgia? Not Russia's fault.

It goes on and on. And when the Russians invade their next neighbor, you will be here to tell us that it's not their fault, again. And remind us to break out of our Cold War mindset.

Georgia never attacked Russia, Russia attacked Georgia unprovoked, just as Russia is now invading Ukraine unprovoked Russia still occupies Georgian land today, after murdering and ethnically cleansing thousands of innocent Georgian civilians. KGB Putin waged a genocidal campaign against Georgia and he is a mass murderer.
