February, 7, 2006 "Territorial integrity" in Russian Zaurbek Galaev, CHECHENPRESS, 07.02.06. The squabbles of politicians accompanying an aggravation of the Russian - Georgian relations, testify to gravity of present disagreements between the two countries. Certainly, the question did not refer to the exiguity of contradictions between Russia and Georgia even earlier, because one country occupies almost a quarter of the territory of the second one and destabilizes the conditions on the rest part of the country.

Saakashvili said that a momentary crisis involving halting of gas supply to Ukraine “should have wide-ranging ramifications for the economic security of Europe and raise questions about any notion of a role for Russia as a reliable energy supplier.” He said that this crisis was a clear message for the EU that “there can be no energy security when an undependable neighbor is willing and able to use its energy resources as a weapon in political influence.” “The fig leaf of "market rates" that Russia traditionally uses as cover to jack up prices or to cut off energy supplies is disingenuous at best.
