A specific political party that was in power committed specific crimes and took treacherous steps on behalf of the government – Irakli Kobakhidze
A specific political party that was in power committed specific crimes and took treacherous steps on behalf of the government—this is what the Prime Minister of Georgia, Irakli Kobakhidze, told journalists in Dublin.
According to the head of the government, the torture of individuals was also carried out on behalf of the government; a specific regime—and the political party that embodied that regime at the time—was responsible for all of this. "There was a specific political party that held power at the time. Unfortunately, acting in the name of the government, this party committed specific crimes and took treacherous steps—for instance, in relation to the 2008 war. Even the torture of individuals took place, formally, in the name of the government; yet, the responsibility for all of this lies with a specific regime and the political party that embodied it at the time. Consequently, such statements demonstrate not only irresponsibility but also incompetence. They lack the means to defend themselves because they have no objective arguments. Under these circumstances, they are forced to make statements that are far from the truth," the Prime Minister stated.
