Advocating the entry of Georgia and Ukraine into NATO is like saying that the annexation of Bosnia Herzegovina by the Austrian-hungarian empire in 1908 made Europe more secure

Half of the the population of Ukraine is russophone and it would only deepen the split inside the country. And for Georgia well, it happens to be potentially in one of the most volatile region in the world..Are afghanistan and the balkans not enough?

And after them why not kirghiztan or kazakhstan? The whole CIS except Russia?
