Irakli Kadagishvili –If Mr. Peter Fischer cannot see it in the bathroom or bedroom, it does not mean that the "deep state" does not exist in the world or that it is not a dominant force in shaping political, economic, geopolitical or ideological decisions

If Mr. Peter Fischer cannot see it in the bathroom or bedroom, it does not mean that the "deep state" does not exist in the world or that it is not a dominant force in shaping political, economic, geopolitical or ideological decisions, - Irakli Kadagishvili, Chairman of the Parliament's Self-Government Committee, told journalists.

According to him, for decades, the "deep state" has been "very well known" in world politics, including among political scientists."

"Leaving aside President Trump and the statements of the head of the US intelligence service, for decades and more, the term "deep state" has been known among political researchers in general. It implies the institutions, centers of influence and forces that constantly carry out the policies they set, regardless of how the leaders of the state change at the head of a particular country and how they bring various leaders under the influence of their political goals. This is the classic form of the "deep state". This is not a narrative of recent years, it has been very well known in world politics, including among political researchers, for decades. Therefore, if Mr. Peter Fisher cannot see it in the bathroom or bedroom, it does not mean that this force does not exist in the world or that it is not a dominant force in shaping political, economic, geopolitical or ideological decisions," he said. Kadagishvili.

For information, German Ambassador to Georgia Peter Fischer stated in an interview with the publication "Batumelebi" that the Georgian Dream has developed a certain narrative about the "global war party", the "deep state" and "liberal fascism", which are allegedly plotting against Georgia. According to Fischer, "this is a lie".

"I have worked in the German government for 40 years and I have never seen any 'deep state'. Who is this 'deep state'? Can they name it? Or show us their face? How can this group be so influential in the US, then move to the EU, then to the UK and no one sees it? The facts say otherwise. The fact is that the EU and its member states are true friends and partners of Georgia," Fischer said.
