Clearly Ukraine has decided to choose a softer approach for carrying on its relationship with Russia than the Saakashvili administration has. This has several reasons. First of all the nature of the confrontation between Ukraine and Russia is not of the same character as the one that is currently being played out between Georgia and Russia. Moscow and Kyiv may have broader economic issues at stake, but Russia's presence in the Caucasus has always been volatile and the situation in the conflict zones poses a very real threat of violence. Secondly the president of Ukraine is very different from President Saakashvili. Yushchenko is more moderate, less straightforward, and does not wear his emotions on his sleeve.
