As they got involved in Georgian politics, they should give us an answer - why did the British ambassador interfere in the elections. This is the accusation that I am making against him, - the Speaker of the Parliament of Georgia, Shalva Papuashvili, stated.
As Shalva Papuashvili noted, the ambassador's goal was to defeat Georgian Dream and bring someone else to power.
According to him, ambassadors are playing hide-and-seek.
"The fact is that the British ambassador interfered in the parliamentary elections, he tried to influence the formation of citizens' opinion, to exert this influence against Georgian Dream. Accordingly, his goal was to defeat Georgian Dream and bring someone else to power. Let's ask the question - bring whom? Who are they? This is the force that, on the one hand, we saw who they are, we also hear in the investigative commission what terror they unleashed in Georgia, and these are the people who see the main problem of Georgian Dream in the fact that we do not obey foreigners. They say that the first thing they will do is obey foreigners. They must answer this - ambassadors play hide-and-seek, then come out and say something, then they do not speak. As they got involved in Georgian politics, entered the pre-election campaign and were participants in it, they should behave as subjects participating in politics and give us an answer - why did the British ambassador interfere in the elections. This is the accusation that I make against him - was this an attempt to influence the formation of opinion against Georgian Dream? We need to do a content analysis of this article, a linguistic analysis, and a legal analysis. It will fail all three tests," said Shalva Papuashvili.
