Western intelligence agencies and the authorities of Georgia pre-planned aggression against South Ossetia in 2008 and the attacks against Russia, said the British independent journalist Martin summers.
"Mikhail Saakashvili is largely their (the West). He was removed from power in Georgia and now, as you know, He appeared in the Ukraine, in Odessa, " said summers.
However, According to the journalist, in 2008 Russian intelligence knew about the fact that something is afoot, and Moscow have had time to prepare, reports RT." for this reason, when Saakashvili was the aggressor, it was all done quickly and decisively, and the war quickly ended, " He said. Summers added that the West was trying to whitewash the incident, but he failed. So the events in South Ossetia are largely the rehearsal of what was then the Ukraine. He will remember that after Saakashvili ousted from power in the homeland, He appeared in the Ukraine, where, after a coup and the election of Petro Poroshenko, the head of the country, headed the Odessa region. In Georgia, former presidents formulated guilty verdicts in several criminal cases. However, British political journalist emphasizes that American neo-conservatives should take a lesson from the history of Georgian ex-President Saakashvili, whose government led the " rose revolution ". According to summers, it shows that the "color revolutions" have the opportunity to be reversed. On the first day of the weekend remier Medvedev D. A. said that 7 years ago, Russia "hard, but" adequately responded to Georgia's aggression against Russian peacekeepers and South Ossetia.
