TBILISI, Aug 18 (Reuters) - Georgia's leaders will face hard questions about the "tragic" situation facing the country once it rids itself of Russian tanks, a prominent Georgian opposition figure said on Monday.

Nino Burjanadze, a former parliament speaker, told Reuters that unity in time of war was paramount, but once Russia pulls out there should be a thorough analysis "of what happened, and why it happened".

"Georgian mothers are very brave, and they are ready to send their children, their sons, to fight to defend their country," said Burjanadze, who with President Mikheil Saakashvili led Georgia's 2003 "Rose Revolution".

"But Georgian mothers, as all mothers in the world, have a right to know why they are doing this," she said.
