As reported by the Associated Press on November 26, Saakashvili said Georgia does not want to argue with Russia, but will stand on its "own feet" in the present period of tension with Moscow.
Relations between the countries plummeted in September, when Georgia detained four Russians on spying charges and Russia in turn imposed a trade and travel embargo against Georgia.
