The aim of the article is to answer the question asked in the title: Is Georgia the first victim of the neo-imperial policy of Russia? The author presents the history of the Georgian-Russian conflict of September 2008. He makes reference to the advantages of the conflict for the Georgian and Russian parties. The publication also discusses the issue of the present international position of the Russian Federation and a possible breach of international law that took place during the intervention in South Ossetia, both on the part of Georgia and the Russian Federation. The research methods used by the author when writing the article include a description, analysis of the literature on the subject matter, analysis of published documents and analysis of specialist scientific magazines. The main conclusion made by the author is that Russia does not implement an imperial policy because it is not capable of implementing it. The undertaken actions aim at protecting its sphere of influence with a simultaneous attempt to delay Georgia's accession to the European Union and North Atlantic Treaty Organization.
