Take The ‘Post’ Out of Cold War: Russia’s Invasion of Georgia
ABSTRACT: Kevin Rosner writes that Russia’s invasion of Georgia meant to shake the foundations of the Saakashvili government, expand Russian influence inside this strategic Caucasus state and to reassert its dominance in a neighborhood it considers its own. The act marks the end of the post Cold War era and thrusts the world into unchartered territory with Europe’s energy security in the balance.
