It’s been reported by Georgian media that Tbilisi is now “actively working” to restore the country’s diplomatic relations with Moscow, severed by the former in August 2008, following its trouncing in a calamitous five-day war with Russia. While this may seem mundane to outside observers, it is a seismic development, amply testifying to the extraordinary pace and scale of the US Empire’s self-inflicted collapse.
Correct. The natural progression of late stage capitalism is a move further towards authoritarian capitalist kleptocracy.
How do we tell if a nation is antithetical towards western imperialism, or if we’re just witnessing the beast eating its own tail?
I would argue that we should look at the material motivations, and how capital is distributed within the nation. But I guess the enemy of my enemy is more catchy…
