Let Russia and Georgia resolve own differences

Recently Georgia's relations with Russia have been marred by the "airspace intrusion" incident. The real cause of the incident is still to be resolved, as the two sides continue to blame each other while sticking to their own accounts of what happened.
What we know so far is that on August 6, the Georgian government accused a Russian fighter jet of illegally entering its airspace and fired a rocket. The Russian side has categorically rejected this accusation and countered by accusing Georgia of planting evidence.
Moscow believes the whole thing is a farce staged by Georgia to undermine the planned talks between South Ossetia and Georgia over the status of the South Ossetia region.
