Still ringing in the ears are the Marxist household words of my earlier times ‘A specter is haunting Europe – the specter of communism’. How about the specter of USSR haunting Russia? The smell is persistently oozing up to permeate every pore of the nostalgic Russian society. 

Parliament, or any other legislative body makes laws – is there anybody out there who would not know that? And law-making is an extremely complicated process, consisting of a number of steps to be taken, myriad measures to be undertaken and a lot of research to be tinkering with. 

History of Georgia, as the past of many other smaller or bigger nations around the world is marked with ceaseless struggle for liberty and independence. Even the United States of America, as big and powerful as it is today, had in its own time shed huge amount of tears and blood to acquire the independence and to enjoy the liberty it has heroically fought for throughout centuries. 

Poor, poor good old Russia! Look at what the naughty bad and even older Georgia is doing to her! A couple of decades ago, it would have taken the wildest ever imagination to think that the huge, strong and omnipotent Russia would some day be at the mercy of the tiny, fragile and feeble Georgia.  Our Good Mother of God never stops working sporadic wonders for our miniature land of magic.

Let us put together America’s customary presence of mind and traditional romanticism in foreign affairs, Russia’s longstanding but currently-crippled love for Georgia and Georgia’s conventional readiness to embrace both of them as friends and partners, and we will receive the latently-desired geopolitical Triangle which might surprise the world not only with its freshness of thought but with an amazingly practicable resolution of one of the acutest contemporary conflicts, blocking the way to so many good things to happen around. 

Fight for a political advantage is as old as the world itself, and it is ubiquitous all over the Planet. Georgia is no exclusion of course. Political struggle here has a long history, and it is as fierce today as it has ever been before. The politically charged vibes, brutally overwhelming scores of   talented men and women in an attempt to become a Number One in the country were present in the past, are in full swing today and will be exorbitant tomorrow as well. 

The deeper I advance in years, the bigger becomes my infatuation with curious observations. One of the most recent ones that I have experienced is juxtaposition of Georgia’s belonging in Europe and/or in Asia.

Isn’t it utterly amazing that our tiny Georgia has as many Perots, Forbses and Trumps as America itself – the businessmen running for president? The Georgian hunger for political adrenaline is stupendous.
