HYBRID WARFARE: A GEOSTRATEGIC CHALLENGE TO GEORGIA’S NATIONAL SECURITY, ETHNICALLY AND RELIGIOUSLY DIVERSE LOCATIONS AS SOFT POWER TARGETS

Abstract

Georgia is distinguished by its multi-religious and multi-ethnic diversity. There are a sufficient number of representatives of ethnic and religious minorities in the country. It is also worth noting the locations distinguished by their ethnic and religious diversity, especially in the eastern and southern parts of the country, in the Samtskhe-Javakheti, Kvemo Kartli and Kakheti regions. The ethnic or religious minorities living there have been living together under the jurisdiction of our country for many centuries.
