How can it be that again Putin gets away with it? Everyone in their right mind knows what he is all about. Murdered journalists, cruelty, rape and murder in Chechnya and now this. What is so sad is that he does get away with it because the EU has no guts to stand by Georgia and USA weakened by other political issues is not going to intervene forcefully enough.
It saddens anyone to see that the EU is not even calling the aggression what it is. It saddens to see that when the moment of truth comes, a small state is left on its own. It does signal nothing good in terms of future dealings with Iran or Russia for that matter. It also serves to show other small states of the region that they will sooner be protected by Russia or Iran than weak USA or powerless EU. Iran knows that EU will not do anything concrete about its nuclear ambitions and Russia knows that it can act with impunity and continue selling whatever it wants to, whomever it wants to.
If Russia is left getting away with it, it does not bode well for the future and only serves to embolden aggression everywhere.
