Georgians were also a minority in the USSR, and caucasian minorities have never been treated very nicely by Moscow. Moscow's sudden interest in Ossetian people is only motivated by geostrategy, not the well being of a minority.

So you can blame Paris, Berlin, London or any other government whose foreign policy decissions over South Ossetia makes you angry, but blaming Brussels for something over which it has absolutely no control whatsoever is pure irrational euro bashing.
