EU Integration Committee Chair: Opposition's actions threaten Georgia'...
According to him, the ongoing changes in the world have reached a
logical conclusion: today, a “ring of fire” is forming, extending
from Ukraine to the Middle East. In his assessment, the global economy
faces unprecedented pressure, and once-close allies are now treating
each other as adversaries.“In this difficult environment, we cannot
remain passive observers. Diplomacy is our only weapon in the
international arena. Therefore, yes, when the former president forced
the state to abandon this only weapon by refusing to appoint
ambassadors, we must urgently correct this mistake and allow Georgian
diplomats to effectively protect Georgia’s interests. We act in
Georgia’s national interests. This is the only star by which
alignment will lead us to safety. Any other target, any other star
could cost our country dearly,” Makhashvili declared.According to
him, in the current global chaos, Georgia is not waiting for
opportunities but creating them itself.As the committee chairperson
noted, each foreign visit by Georgia’s Prime Minister, Minister of
Foreign Affairs, and members of the government and parliament creates
new opportunities and initiates the implementation of new beneficial
ideas or major projects.“But let’s not deceive ourselves – some
forces are trying to drag Georgia into chaos. These forces haven’t
disappeared anywhere. Moreover, they are now building a comfortable
nest on the European continent, so they can continue to lecture us
while hiding behind European institutions.Encouraged by this, the
opposition is ready to sacrifice everything to seize power, caring for
neither Europe, nor America, and most regrettably, nor Georgia’s
national interests. None of these are valuable to them. Only their
narrow political interests are valuable, and for this, they will curse
America if necessary, the European Union too, and throw in Georgia’s
future along with it.One day they deify the American ambassador, the
next day they bury the entire embassy. They’ve done it, they’re
doing it, and they will continue to do it,” Makhashvili
stated.According to him, peace is not a gift but a responsibility. In
this regard, the government has repeatedly proven to the population
that they can rely on the Georgian Dream’s administration and its
responsible policies, even in the most difficult times.“While the
opposition, together with their internal and external accomplices,
drags the country toward the abyss, we will responsibly continue the
country’s development and care for the population,” Levan
Makhashvili declared.
