The president has just given his first speech on immigration since taking office. Has anything changed?

Best Opinion: L.A. Times, National Review, Firedoglake
In his first major speech on immigration — a policy priority that has seemingly come "out of nowhere" in the past week — President Obama called for comprehensive reform legislation, including a pathway to citizenship for 11 million illegal immigrants. "The question now is, do we have the courage and political will to pass a bill through Congress and finally get it done," the president said, speaking at American University on Thursday. He decried Arizona's yet-to-be-enacted immigration law as "ill-conceived," and called for "one clear national standard."

They really can't "afford to write off a Latino community" ahead of the November midterms. But the president didn't offer any specifics, says Mark Krikorian at National Review. "The speech was just one more effort at stringing the open-borders folks along while trying to blame the Republicans for not helping the Democrats pass an amnesty."

Waiting for Hilary
Becoming a new US president Barack Obama proclaimed "reset" in relations with Russia for the achievement of common goals of global security. As a result prioritized Afghan and Iranian issues shifted the geopolitical struggle for South Caucasus to the background. But it seems Georgia is unhappy with the supporting roles. From time to time Tbilisi calls attention of the White House. Now Georgians set hopes on Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's tour of Caucasus and her possible approval of reconciliation strategy with Abkhazia and South Ossetia. What will Washington say to Tbilisi strategists?

The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) of the USA will open an office in Georgia, the VZGLYAD correspondent states citing to Alia.
FBR delegation will visit Georgia for preparation work.
In May Robert Mueller, the FBI director, visited Georgia. The media say the issue of opening an office was decided that time.

The foreign intelligence service will receive more authority and will be the Intelligence Service of Georgia, and the military counter-espionage of the Ministry of Defense will be cooperating with a new service.
Georgia flying to arms
Who said the East was tricky? Perhaps, that is true in respect of personalities but if we take the category of State there is no easier task than tracking down its actions and nearest steps. Georgia is no exception and its behavior in the international arena bodes no good. The minds of Georgia's current politicians seem to be preoccupied with the number-one idea of having revenge, no matter the price or means.
