The War Between Georgia and the Russian Federation as an Important Milestone
Journal Title: Vojenske rozhledy - Year 2019, Vol 28, Issue 2
Abstract
In 2018, it has been already ten years since one of the major wars of the post-Cold War period, namely, the war between Georgia and the Russian Federation. This war lasted only for five days, but it also became an important milestone in the development of the international security relations as well as the military science at the beginning of the 21st century. The article evaluates its geopolitical framework on the basis of the neorealist theory of the balance of security threats and it also deals with its impact on the development of the Russian military.
