“While the devastation of war is profoundly tragic and incomparable, losing friends and partners due to someone else’s conflict is not beneficial either,” stated Iago Khvichia, leader of the parliamentary Girchi party.

Khvichia argued that the notion that the United States is so weakened that it requires every country to participate in a war lacks credibility.

“This argument might hold water if twenty countries were engaged in a conflict and you were the 21st nation choosing not to partake. In that case, if those twenty nations suffer devastation while you remain unscathed due to astute governance, it could be persuasive. However, the countries that initiated the war are still embroiled in it, whereas our country has shifted from a pro-Western stance to one that is pro-Russian in nature.

The devastation of war is indeed tragic, but losing friends and partners over a conflict in which you are not involved is equally detrimental,” he concluded.
