Zakharova: Georgia doesn't want to open second front and be part of West’s game

No country wants to become a pawn in someone else's game, and this fully applies to Georgia, which the West wants to use for its own purposes, Russian Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Maria Zakharova said at a weekly briefing, answering a question from a NEWS.ru correspondent, Report informs.

Speaking about the possible opening of a "second front against Russia in Georgia," Zakharova noted that the republic's residents still remember the events of 2008 and understand that behind the West's words about freedom and democracy hides a "poisonous wolf." "It seems to me that no one wants to be drawn in, to become a pawn in someone else's game," Zakharova noted.

Now, according to the diplomat, one thing is clear - the West will push forward until it meets resistance. In her words, only when all countries unite under the aegis of multipolarity will the issue of opening a second front and other similar talks become irrelevant.

Earlier, Georgian Prime Minister Irakli Kobakhidze spoke about Western pressure regarding the opening of a second front against Russia. He also expressed hope that the conflict in Ukraine would end soon and this issue would be resolved.
