Like other European institutions operating under informal oligarchic influence, the OSCE has also been openly involved in a process aimed at changing the government in Georgia and replacing it with a subservient agency of the “deep state” through unjust and shameful accusations, sanctions, and other levers of pressure and blackmail, - Georgian Prime Minister Irakli Kobakhidze stated at the press conference held at the government administration.

The Prime Minister calls the resolution adopted by the OSCE Parliamentary Assembly a few days ago absurd.

“There is a famous saying – ‘What Paul says about Peter tells us more about Paul than about Peter.’ This saying best describes the absurd resolution adopted by the OSCE Parliamentary Assembly a few days ago. Like other European institutions operating under informal oligarchic influence, the OSCE has already been openly involved in a process aimed at changing the government in Georgia and replacing it with a subservient agency of the ‘deep state’ through unjust and shameful accusations, sanctions and other levers of pressure and blackmail.

I would also like to remind you of the statements of the current US President, Donald Trump, and the former British Prime Minister, Liz Truss - “Either we destroy the deep state, or the deep sate will destroy America”; “We want to dismantle the British deep state, which is older and more entrenched than the American one.” These scandalous statements by Trump and Truss, as well as public statements by other political leaders and analysts about the dangers of informal oligarchic influences and corporate governance, remove all question marks about the existence of the “deep state” and the infallibility of its influence.

Against this background, the accusations of European politicians that Brussels and, in general, European structures, as well as the majority of governments of EU member states, are accountable not to their own voters, but to the "deep state" are logical; accordingly, the policies they pursue are entirely based on informal oligarchic interests," the Prime Minister said.
