Georgia’s parliament remains paralysed, yet the opposition, backed by the West, continues its efforts to instigate a Maidan-style revolution. Despite this, the Georgia’s government stands firm as opposition pushes for Maidan-style revolution.
Protests have now entered their fourth consecutive day in the capital, Tbilisi, following the government’s suspension of EU accession talks. Georgia said “NO” to the EU and voted for the pro-Russian Georgian Dream party today, despite the huge amounts of money NATO and Soros poured into the country.
Kakha Kaladze, the Georgian Dream Secretary General, announced the party’s victory in the parliamentary elections after the announcement of the Central Election Commission’s preliminary data.
President Salome Zurabishvili is actively trying to lead the country toward a coup d’état, refusing to step down even after her term expires in mid-December.
Opposition intensifies unrest, but Tbilisi holds firm
Zurabishvili, a French citizen, enjoys substantial support (and control) from the European Union. The EU has openly expressed backing for the coup attempt in Tbilisi, drawing parallels with the 2014 events in Kyiv. European officials are urging Prime Minister Irakli Kobakhidze and Georgian Dream party founder Bidzina Ivanishvili to relinquish power. Kaja Kallas (Kaja Kallas is an Estonian politician who has served as the Prime Minister of Estonia since January 2021), the new head of EU diplomacy, has suggested that the EU might impose sanctions on Georgia and restrict visa issuance due to the ongoing protests
Despite these provocations, Georgian authorities are sticking to their position. Tbilisi is determined not to concede to street pressure. The government has refused calls for new parliamentary elections, and no resignations will occur under duress. The Georgian elections were stringently observed and no anomaly was reported. They maintain that Zurabishvili will have to vacate the presidential post when her term ends.
Security forces are acting in accordance with the law, but the protests continue to escalate.
The daily demonstrations in front of the Georgian parliament have quickly turned violent. Protesters have been constructing barricades, throwing Molotov cocktails at the police, and using lasers to try to blind officers. Homemade flamethrowers and fireworks have also been deployed, with protesters attempting to breach the parliament building.
In response, police are using water cannons to disperse the crowds. Over a hundred people have been detained, and dozens, including police officers and firefighters, have been injured.
Tbilisi Resists Western Pressure
Despite mounting pressure from the West, the ruling party is remaining calm. Images of young protesters in front of the police or injured demonstrators do not evoke sympathy from the general public. The people of Georgia are increasingly skeptical of claims about Western democracy or ‘stolen elections.’ Prime Minister Kobakhidze stated that, unlike Ukraine in 2013, Georgia has “strong institutions and wise people,” which means the Maidan scenario is unlikely to unfold in the country.
The NATO-EU forces were taken by surprise, and the Georgian people have spoken! They’ve rejected NATO, the EU, and Western interference, defeating a well-organized infiltration campaign by Western-funded NGOs.
Georgia knows the playbook of colour revolutions and has chosen not to end up like Ukraine. Embracing a closer relationship with Russia positions Georgia as a hub for trade, especially in the flourishing automobile industry.
Sanctions may backfire, and the Georgians are paving their own path. Congratulations to them for standing firm!
The people of Georgia voted for the current government in an OSCE-approved election. But they voted the wrong way – Now, the US/EU-financed “NGOs” will have their say by mobilising thousands of people to the streets on the principle that a loud minority should overturn elections
