Abstract

The article discusses the fighting between Russia and Georgia. The article mentions how Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin strengthened Russia's military, and how Russia provoked Georgia in the weeks leading up to the war. The conflict had been developing for years, according to the article, due to feelings in Russia that the U.S. ignores their views, and embarrassments like Kosovo's declaration of independence.
