Your comment implies that Georgia might have had better ways out of that situation, that’s probably not true.

Trying to solve an ancient ethnic conflict by force was definitely not the best way to go.

Expecting that western countries will start a third world war just to help you get rid of all those inconvenient Russian peacekeepers was simply stupid.

It seems to me that people often seem to forget that Georgia was never a "good guy" in that conflict: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Georgian–Ossetian_conflict

Georgia was pushed and encouraged by Western allies which then turn away and abandoned it.
