Obama Wrong On Georgia’s Territorial Integrity
Barack Obama today released a statement about the Georgia Russia
conflict in the region of South Ossetia in which he calls for
restrating and says "Georgia’s territorial integrity must be
respected…" But how do you expect the people of South Ossetia to
live under Georgia in one state when Georgia attempted ethnic
cleansings there? If something is right for Kosov it’s right for all
who love freedom.
However, first let’s see Barack Obama’s statement on South Ossetia
conflict.
"I strongly condemn the outbreak of violence in Georgia, and urge an
immediate end to armed conflict. Now is the time for Georgia and
Russia to show restraint, and to avoid an escalation to full scale
war. Georgia’s territorial integrity must be respected. All sides
should enter into direct talks on behalf of stability in Georgia, and
the United States, the United Nations Security Council, and the
international community should fully support a peaceful resolution to
this crisis."
The reason that authonomus region is called South Ossetia is because
Joseph Stalin has devided this region and into two parts putting the
Northern part under Russian (in Russia there is Northern Ossetian
Republic) and the South Ossetia under Georgia. Stalin made many grave
mistakes at time, such as giving Nakhichevan and Nagorno Karabakh to
Azerbaijan, taking these regions from Armenia, and giving the region
of Javakheti to Georgia again taking it from Armenia. Stalin also made
this policy of mixing nations in Prednistrovie, Besarabia and in
Central Asia.
Now these nations either want to reunited with the rest of their own
people like the two Germanies deserved and reunited, or, like in the
case of Nagorno Karabakh and Abkhazia they want freedom from opression
and ethnic cleansing like Kosovo has.
When Mr. Obama is speaking in Berling he presents himself as the Agent
of Change against the unjust establishment and appeals to the freedom
loving people of the world.
Therefore, I think it’s not a good strategy to make such a statement
about the integrity when these people prefer to fight and put their
lives then Ossetians living under Georgia and Armenias of Nagorno
Kharabakh living ander the oppressive regime of Azerbaijan in one
state.
Kosovo loved freedom and deserved it. The result: today we have peace
in the balkans.
The international community and the major powers should look to the
model of Kosov as key in solving other inter ethnic
conflicts. Immediate recognition of Akhazia, Nagorno Karabakh and
South Ossetia as independent republics would bring peace in the region
within 3 years. It took less for Kosovo and Serbia.
The freedom is right and sweet not only for the select and for the
friends of the West, but for ALL. The West would ge more friends and
supports in the world if it adopted single standards, not double
standards by providing favoritism and the gift of freedom only to its
friends.
The people of South Ossetia, Nagorno Karabakh and Abkhazia have the
same thing as it’s in China called "Saving Face." The would rather put
their lives and loose their face and honor by living obediently under
the oppressive regimes of Georgia and Azerbaijan.
Barack Obama knows that freedom is right for all.
