Supposed fiasco of teh Russian intelligence has been discussed in Moscow during last few days. Part of politicians and experts think if the information on working of spies in Georgia in favour of Russia is confirmed, it would be a complete collapse of the Russian intelligence.

They say, the internal political situation in Georgia is in gridlock, therefore, President Saakashvili is trying to deteriorate relations with Russia and in this way maintain his governance.
