Georgian Defense Minister Irakli Alasania said that Russia still has not got rid of the "Cold War" mentality.
"To achieve our goals we need to be part of the European family, or the Atlantic community. We have to normalize our relations with Russia, at least, defuse the tension," Georgia Online quotes Alansia as saying.
Alasania also added that Russia's decision to chose a Georgian conflict veteran to carry the Olympic torch once again confirms that the political leadership of the country has still not got rid of the "Cold War" mentality.
