Ukraine and Georgia against the Backdrop of the Russian-Ukrainian War: Two Different Players or a Matter of Separate Times and/or Other Factors?

In order to diagnose which kind of political processes are taking place specifically in terms of geopolitics of the Central and Eastern Europe or broader post-Soviet/ post-socialist region having potentially global repercussions, the paper aims at finding out what are the major similarities and differences between Ukraine and Georgia amidst the ongoing Russian-Ukrainian War. In particular, we need to identify if much bigger and more significant regional or already due to the ongoing war, - the world competitor - Ukraine on one hand, and on the other, much smaller South Caucasian state - Georgia with also crucially important location as a center of a micro region at the crossroads of Europe and Asia, are in fact qualitatively analogous or very different players taking into account at least main contemporary commonalities and distinctions characteristic and topical contemporarily for these two countries.
