Rati Ionatamishvili: When you drag NATO non-member Georgia into an escalation, while you yourself, protected by NATO’s nuclear umbrella, run to hide in a bunker over a five-second flutter of a makeshift drone built by a young hobbyist — it’s a bit awkward
“When you drag a war-torn, non-NATO member Georgia into escalation, while you yourself, protected by NATO’s nuclear umbrella, take shelter in a bunker over a five-second scare from a young designer’s cobbled-together drone, it feels a bit awkward,” said Rati Ionatamishvili, a deputy from “Georgian Dream,” in response to reports that Lithuanian leaders were moved to a shelter.
Specifically, according to media reports, Lithuanian political leaders were taken to a shelter after a drone from Belarus entered the country.
“I understand the need for caution, and of course, it’s necessary to protect a country’s leadership in accordance with standard protocols. But when you drag a war-torn, non-NATO member Georgia into escalation, while you yourself, shielded by NATO’s nuclear umbrella, take cover in a bunker over a five-second scare from a young designer’s cobbled-together drone, it feels a bit awkward,” Ionatamishvili wrote.
