A new front likely to open?

Of course the US and its allies are subsidising bogus NGOs with a view to trying to bring in a friendly government. Russia too no doubt with a view to maintaining in power a friendly government. These are the sort of intrigues that used to go on in the Balkans in the first half of the last century (and the assassination attempt on the prime minister of Slovakia the other day suggests they still are).

I noticed this:

Russian troops currently occupy some 20% of Georgian territory

This will be in two breakaway areas inhabited by non-Georgian speakers. It is looking like that is the way the Ukraine war could end — with Russia continuing to hold what it has occupied and Ukraine (and the US and its allies) having to accept this fact on the ground without recognising its legality.
