Pearl!
See my earlier post.There was no mention of the 3 of them.I only mentioned them in response to other peoples post.
I still do not see how Russia is to blame for this crisis.The people of South Ossetia & Akhazia,like the people of Kosovo that the USA and NATO supported some years ago,ve the right to self-determination,that is recognized by international law.When it was Kosovo,nobody made any noise.So the world should shut up & let the Russian be.The US & NATo stated this whole problem.They cannot ignore Russia.No matter how much they pretend,Russia is the regional MILITARY POWER.So as long as NATO continue to fight to make former Soviet Republic(FSR)its members,thereby attempting to reducing Russia's influnce & power in that region,there is bound to be conflict.The Russian President Medvedev has already stated clearly that Russia is not afraid of a new Cold War.
The world is watching.And as students of History and International Relations,we must keep our fingers cross to see how trends turn.
ZIE!
Well said.It is the beginning of a new Cold War that has being in the cooking for sometime now.As Russia continues to look for ways to increase its power,while the EU & NATO try very hard to reduce it,there is bound to be conflict.And,in this New Cold War ll favour Africa in ways that are not clear yet.Let's continue to sleep in the theater of world dramas,we might see the opening scene b4 others.
