I want to answer some of my friends about internal democracy - I also want to answer Nanuka who said “Misha [Zhorzholiani] is in prison and his opinion may not matter because of this”: dear Nanuka, Nelson Mandela was in prison for 30 years, but his opinion was regularly read by the African National Congress, - the third President of Georgia, Mikheil Saakashvili, writes on social networks.

According to him, he wants to remind everyone "what the rules of the game are, real democracy, leadership, moral authority".

“I want to respond to some of my friends about internal democracy. They reproach me, saying that I only make decisions in a narrow circle and then inform others, the second reproach was that Misha’s voice is actually not one voice but many voices and therefore he should not voice his decision.

Yes, I am isolated, I mainly contact myself and also the prison staff, some of whom have glass eyes, but first of all, those of you who read my posts, have you noticed that I do not know what is happening in this country? And even if I do not know, my decision is nothing more than a simple proposal that you can accept or not accept and the narrow circle has nothing to do with it.

As for the fact that my voice is equal to many voices (my dear friend Eka Tsamalashvili) - dear Eka, do you know what leadership is? When you are listened to more than some others.

Our ill-wishers also rushed into this topic and wrote that Misha and Bidzina are the same, the party is obedient to whatever they say. Ivanishvili is based on violence and money, I want to ask the members of the UNM, did I force anyone? Or do you receive any material benefits from me? Well, if you don’t, then my authority is of a purely moral nature.

I also want to answer them (and Nanuka voiced this) that Misha is in prison and his opinion may not matter because of this. My Nanuka, Nelson Mandela was in prison for 30 years, but his opinion was regularly read by the African National Congress.

For example, I am interested in the opinion of Nadiradze and Khabeishvili, even though they are in prison. So, I wanted to remind everyone what the rules of the game are, real democracy, leadership, moral authority, etc., "- writes Saakashvili.
