Default Georgia's aggression

Opinion from Lithuania: tbh I can but be surprized at our president Valdus Adamkus. I learned from a news bulletin that he orally encouraged Georgian president Saakashvili in his espionage scandal with Russia. True, I not very much in the liking of Russians too, but I also do not think backing Saakashvili will do credit to us. Looks like we are supporting a provoker, a betrayer of his own people, for it is only thanks to Saakashvili's that Georgian economics keeps stagnating. That country only derives income from grants of the US and Turkey! A huge sum of money is committed to buying enormous amounts of weapons and maintaining Georgian army and special services instead of reconstruction of industry and farming! While people of Georgia remain beggar! Besides, what if they decide to stir up this rabid Georgia against us when we start to think of becoming genuinely independent? Georgia will soon get armed to the teeth, so it may become sort of blind weapon of the US and Turkey! That's what I am really afraid of.
