The World Is Reacting Differently to the Invasion of Georgia in 2008

Russia invaded Georgia in support of two self declared republics in Abkhazia and South Ossetia. Despite the Beijing Olympics attempts to promote a message of international cooperation, Russia declared a peacekeeping operation. The military actions were accompanied by cyber attacks on government websites and servers. That was 14 years ago, but they say history rhymes 14 years later, right here in 2022,. Shortly after another Beijing Olympics, Russia once again declared it would conduct a peacekeepers operation in support of  self declared republics - this time in eastern Ukraine.
