“Vladimir Putin [...] was convinced the US was set on a unilateralist course, not for a good practical purpose but as a matter of principle. Time and again, he would say, ‘Suppose we act against Georgia, which is a base for terrorism against Russia ― what would you say if we took Georgia out? Yet the Americans think they can do whatever they like to whomever they like.’ [447]” — Tony Blair
