Is that so hard to comprehend? It's this black, evil stinking brew from the Caspian Sea. Tskhinvali is 30 km away from the pipeline, which means more independence from Russian oil. That's why USA and EU so heavily support Georgia which suppresses minorities in the most reprehensible way. With the terror tactics of the Georgian army about 100.000 Ossets fled to Russia. Now there are only about 70.000 people living there. See it as it really is - Brussels is the home of unscrupulous greed-throats!
