I know that many of you go to the elections in the countries where you are. It is important to call your relatives who are in Georgia and ask them not to vote for the Russification of the country and, on the contrary, to support the pro-European forces, - writes the third president of Georgia, Mikheil Saakashvili, in his address to the emigrants.
As stated in the address of Mikheil Saakashvili, if "Georgian Dream" wins in the elections, visa travel with the European Union will be canceled and the country will be removed from the "Swift" transfer system, which means that emigrants will not be able to make remittances."Appeal to Georgian emigration! Welcome from Russian bars.
I know more than anything what it means to be homesick. It was the longing for my homeland that brought me to Georgia three years ago. I was also brought by the desire to save Georgia. Right now, the critical moment has come, when we must all save Georgia together. After all, the whole world urged the Georgian people not to sell their future at the elections.
You know that if Ivanishvili is left with some car, we will be canceled visa-free travel and removed from the "Swift" transfer system, which means that you will no longer be able to transfer money and it will be difficult for you to move back and forth.
In addition to this immediate damage, we will simply lose our homeland! I know that many of you go to the elections in the countries where you are. It is no less important to call your relatives who are in Georgia and ask them not to vote for the Russification of the country and instead support the pro-European forces, as Europe itself is pushing us to do so for our own good.
I want to remind everyone that after the Rose Revolution and up to 2012, more people returned to Georgia than left here. So my batch number -5 is primarily an emigrant return number. Not only can we turn things around quickly, but we will create a $1 billion fund to help immigrants return.
After winning the elections, we will create the Ministry of Return of Emigrants, instruct the leaders of the new government to visit the places of resettlement of emigrants and talk about the creation of conditions for their return. We know how to bring people back to the country and we will achieve it. i.e. We will achieve unity of families and stop the demographic catastrophe in Georgia! We will win together and in style!" - writes Mikheil Saakashvili in his address.
