FOREIGN RELATIONS

Georgia maintains good relations with its direct neighbours Armenia, Azerbaijan and Turkey and participates actively in regional organizations, such as the Black Sea Economic Council and the GUAM. [44] Georgia also maintains close political, economic and military relations with [ADD: Israel and] Ukraine.

[REPLACE] The growing US and European Union influence in Georgia, notably through the Train and Equip military assistance programme and the construction of the Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan pipeline, have frequently strained Tbilisi's relations with Moscow.

[NEW] The growing US and European Union influence in Georgia, notably through proposed EU and NATO membership, the US Train and Equip military assistance programme and the construction of the Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan pipeline, have frequently strained Tbilisi's relations with Moscow. Georgia's decision to boost its presence in the coalition forces in Iraq was an important initiative. (http://www.civil.ge/eng/article.php?id=8271)

[REPLACE] Georgia has been recently invaded by Russian armed forces due to the conflict over Ossetia.

[ADD: In July 2008 hostilities started between Ossetian militia and Georgian armed forces which led to a full-fledged attack with artillery fire on Tsinkvali region (South Ossetia) on Friday August 8. Russia claimed 1,600 Ossetians were killed in this attack. (http://www.asiantribune.com/?q=node/12662) As a consequence, Russians troops entered S Ossetia through the Roki tunnel in support of Ossetians and Russian peacekeepers already stationed there.]

Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS)
August 12, 2008, Georgia's president Saakashvili, has told tens of thousands of people at a rally outside the country's parliament that Georgia will quit the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) and urged Ukraine to follow suit. (http://www.civil.ge/eng/article.php?id=19064&search=commonwealth) The CIS was created in 1991 and has included Georgia, Russia, Azerbaijan, Armenia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Moldova, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan and Ukraine.

SUGGESTION
The military relationship with Israel and the US should be added under topic: MILITARY. I need to do some further research.
