Getting sporty in Georgia

The Country, not the US State.

Folks in the breakaway Georgian state of Abkhazia are none too pleased with their pro-Kremlin overlords.

Should be interesting considering the huge chunk of Russia's military resources tied up in Ukraine. Even more interesting considering the Ukraine conflict is somewhat responsible the Abkhazian revolt, the result of fallout from economic sanctions levied against Russia.

I guess Democrats would call them insurrectionists and demand they be jailed. 

Russia did to Georgia what they wanted to do to Ukraine.  They stormed in quickly before Georgia could mobilize to stop them and seized power.
