Russia, the Iran Deal and Georgia's Tired Political Narratives
For Georgia, the US-Iran agreement may be a reminder that international relations are always susceptible to change and new developments. This may seem difficult to believe in Georgia, where renewed Russian aggression in the form of continuing to move the line between South Ossetia and the rest of Georgia, is evidence of an unchanging Russian view towards Georgia. Georgia’s failure to stop Russia and the inability of the west to provide anything much more than strong words of condemnation also suggest that Georgia’s security challenges are stagnant in nature, but getting worse overall.
