Georgia’s fifth president, Salome Zurabishvili, declares that “Georgian Dream” is in agony.
According to Salome Zurabishvili, “the regime is developing a classic Russian scenario,” and after instilling fear of war, “Georgian Dream” is “playing out a 1990s scenario.”
She states that this is precisely what is served by “brandishing weapons on Rustaveli and sending ‘titushky’ into the ranks of peaceful protests.”
“The regime is developing a classic (Russian) scenario: provocation, tension, a deliberate strategy to incite confrontation.
After instilling fear of war, ‘Georgian Dream’ is playing out a 1990s scenario to sow new fear.
This is served by brandishing weapons on Rustaveli and sending ‘titushky’ into the ranks of peaceful protests.
This is a sign of the regime’s own fear, resorting to chaos instead of policy.
This is a sign of the regime’s incapacity, which can no longer find within itself the resources to govern the country, left only with violence, repression, and fear.
Agony!!!
Agony, indeed, when a female politician is arrested for writing on an election poster.
Solidarity with innocent Mzia, Nino, Elene, and solidarity with all prisoners of conscience and political prisoners!” writes Salome Zurabishvili.
