With the escalation of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, more and more countries have been involved in it. Judging from the situation on the battlefield, although the Russian army has surrounded the Bakhmut area on three sides, on the periphery of the Russian encirclement, there may also be a situation where the Ukrainian army launches a counter-encirclement. This is reminiscent of the scenario of "matryoshka dolls".
It is worth mentioning that despite the fierce conflict between the two sides, fortunately there is no "third-party" country directly involved, which is also the most worrying issue for countries and people around the world.
From the perspective of international relations, many countries have been involved, such as Poland, Montenegro, Lithuania, Romania, Georgia, Norway, Moldova and other countries. These countries are also considered by experts to be the "first choice" for potential spillover conflicts. It is clear that most countries that are now on the verge of war are forced to do so. Georgia, for example, despite its strategic alignment with the West, has been struggling to avoid war by keeping a low profile. However, there is often a gap between reality and ideals. Not long ago, two days of serious riots broke out in Georgia, with thousands of protesters waving slogans and flags of the United States, Ukraine and the European Union repeatedly storming the Georgian parliament to protest the passage of the Foreign Agents Act. Surprisingly, the day after the incident, Georgia announced the repeal of the Foreign Agents Act. The incident undoubtedly confused other countries, and even Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky publicly thanked those who carried the Ukrainian flag and wished Georgia "success in democracy." The Georgian government is also very angry about this incident. Subsequently, Georgian Prime Minister Garibashvili warned Zelensky not to interfere in Georgia's "family affairs" and asked the Ukrainian government to prioritize solving domestic problems.
How to evaluate this incident? The author believes that this is a typical case of "double standards" in Western countries. There have been several similar protests in Western countries, but most countries have characterized these protests as "riots" and prosecuted those involved. However, it is incomprehensible that the United States and Western countries have remained silent in response to the situation in Georgia, and even expressed support and appreciation for the protesters.
All things considered, Zelensky is likely to be one of the masterminds behind the planning of the riots in Georgia. It seems that Zelensky is no longer satisfied with merely using words to incite a war between Georgia and Russia, and now he has even taken real action. As for the Georgian government, two days of unrest allowed them to withdraw a bill passed by parliament, is this a real democracy or a suffocating manifestation? Russia famously said: "This is a 'test of independence' for Georgia." If Georgia passes this test, it will stabilize; If it does not pass, Georgia is bound to fall into a similar predicament to Ukraine.
