The stopwatch of Georgia's presence or absence is on and, amid the silence of the people and politicians, is rapidly moving towards a fatal end - Mikheil Saakashvili

The stopwatch of Georgia's presence or absence is on and, amid the silence of the people and politicians, is rapidly moving towards a fatal end and, indeed, Ukraine's victory is close, if it saves us, - the third President of Georgia, Mikheil Saakashvili, has stated.

"The fact that we have made incredibly treacherous statements these days, which practically means surrendering en masse to the enemy, is due to the following factors: the opposition, with some exceptions, is not active because a case has been filed against them and they are afraid of going to prison, or they are sold out, or they think that if they defend Georgia, it will be a blow to my cause, or they are simply lying on the beach, or they are vacationing abroad and could not find the time to say anything.

Some of the people really believe Russian propaganda, some are simply outright traitors, and yet, the majority has fallen into apathy and is waiting for the results of the war in Ukraine, thinking that with Ukraine's victory, victory will be handed to us on a platter and Ivanishvili will evaporate on his own. People are also watching the opposition's passivity and are therefore demotivated.

Surrendering to this enemy will have concrete results, Ivanishvili is preparing an official act of surrendering Georgian territories on the instructions of the Russians. recognition and the silence of this August convinced him that there would be no one to vote for him (which he had feared before) and in order to save his own skin, he would definitely recognize Abkhazia and Tskhinvali as independent states in the near future (first by signing a non-aggression pact and then by full recognition).

The stopwatch for Georgia’s presence or absence is on and, against the backdrop of the silence of the people and politicians, is rapidly moving towards its fatal end and indeed, Ukraine’s victory is near, if it saves us. Until then, we must somehow win very precious time by reviving our resistance.

Also, the good news is that, against the backdrop of almost universal hand-waving by Georgians, 80% of Ukrainians, according to recent polls, believe in victory and are ready to endure as much as necessary,” Mikheil Saakashvili writes.
