Let's add Georgia to NATO!

Post by CID1990 »

So a few years back we were playing footsie with Georgia for NATO membership

In response, Russia destabilized the country, and then chomped off a chunk of the country in South Ossetia

Georgia has a military of 37,000. Aside from being the birthplace of Josef Stalin (and having a large ethnic Russian minority that will surely "ask" Putin for "protection"), it holds little strategic value except as a buffer state between the West and Russia.

Guess who has been more historically in need of buffer states in that region?

Hint: not NATO

Next thing you know you'll be wanting to add South Carolina...










Wait, there is a country called Georgia?
