Paata Manjgaladze: The efforts of the Georgian people, almost 40 days of protests, have yielded results, and the US is trying to help Georgia, so that we can remove from power the regime that undermines democracy

The efforts of the Georgian people, almost 40 days of protests, have yielded results, and the United States, as a friend and main supporter of our freedom and unity, is trying to help Georgia, so that we can somehow remove from power the regime that undermines democracy, oppresses and endangers our freedom, - this is how Paata Manjgaladze, Secretary General of the Strategy Builder, responded to the MEGOBARI Act initiated for the second time in the US Congress.

According to him, the US is the main supporter of democracy in the world and responds in this way to the government that confronts its own people.

“The US is the main supporter of democracy in the world and it responds in this way to the government that confronts its own people. Don’t you have democracy? Are you fighting your own people? Are you undermining democracy? Then you will be treated you the same way they treat the Georgian Dream. The US is a friend of Georgia and that is why such acts are being carried out so that regimes that block the country’s path to integration with Europe are not in power,” said Paata Manjgaladze.

According to him, the ongoing protests in the country have brought significant results, which are reflected in the international community’s decision not to recognize the legitimacy of Mikheil Kavelashvili, who was elected president by the Georgian Dream and his election colleague.

“These protests have resulted in the self-proclaimed regime not being recognized, inside or outside the country. And new packages of sanctions are coming for the government, not for the Georgian people. In this process, Salome Zurabishvili herself will determine how big her role will be.

We are all in agreement on new elections and the release of political prisoners, and probably the Dream is also in agreement at a low level, they just can’t tell Bidzina Ivanishvili this,” said Paata Manjgaladze.
