Default Eurasian GEORGIA

As protests erupt in Georgia, the DCU Professor of Politics Donncha O' Beachain says the country is at a crossroads but wants to lean into the West.


THE COLLAPSE OF the Soviet Union liberated Georgia from the imposed communist experiment that had tucked it away far behind the Iron Curtain. But the Soviet collapse and national independence movement simply created the opportunity, as in other former Soviet republics, for Georgia’s “return to Europe”, but they did not guarantee it. Georgia’s starting point, at the dissolution of the Soviet Union, was extremely low. Within its first years of independence, it had to contend with secessionist wars, internal power struggles, civil war, and a coup d’état.

For centuries, Georgia had been ruled from Moscow and since regaining independence the country has regularly clashed with the Kremlin, most notably in 2008, when Russia decimated Georgian forces in a brief but decisive war.


Georgia’s bid to join the EU, and indeed NATO, have been largely motivated by a desire to remove the country from Russia’s shadow.

Georgia’s European identity has played a major role in defining the country’s sense of self and imagining its destiny. You’ll find more EU flags flying in Tbilisi than in Dublin. Most Georgians believe Europe can help transform their country, in terms of democratic development, prosperity and security. When Ukraine decided to apply for EU membership within days of Russia’s full-scale invasion, Georgia quickly followed suit. However, while the applications of Ukraine and Moldova for candidate status were quickly approved, Georgia’s was not. Instead, it received a weaker substitute, which involved acknowledging the country’s “European perspective”.


Georgia was given a shopping list of reforms to carry out before it could be considered a candidate for EU membership.

For many in Georgia, the EU decision was interpreted as a rebuff and evidence of the reputational damage caused by successive Government policies, not least those that had undermined democratic values and minority rights. This setback provides a vital context for understanding the current conflict between government and civil society in Georgia.

The Government has also come under fire for not reflecting the popular pro-Ukrainian mood in Georgia. Rather than participating in sanctions against Russia, the Georgian government has opted to benefit economically from the war. There have been numerous high-profile spats with President Zelenskyy’s government and diplomatic relations between Georgia and Ukraine are at a very low ebb.


Cause of the current crisis

The most recent crisis that has overwhelmed Georgia in recent days centres on a controversial and polarising law which would require civil society organisations in receipt of funding from outside of Georgia to register as foreign agents. Critics of the bill maintained the law was designed to marginalise and discredit NGOs devoted to the protection of human rights, democracy and rule of law.

As a relatively poor, developing society, most Georgian NGOs rely on external funding to survive. The Government has little interest in promoting organisations that will critique its performance. When similar legislation has been introduced in countries such as Russia, Belarus, and Azerbaijan the space for non-government-controlled activity has vanished.



Former Georgian President Mikheil Saakashvili gestures during a hearing in a court room in 2017.

Civil society is all the more valued because of the tight grip on power exercised by the Georgian Dream party, which has governed the country for more than a decade. Its de facto leader, the reclusive billionaire oligarch Bidzina Ivanishvili, made his fortune in Russia during the 1990s.


Because of the administrative resources at Georgian Dream’s disposal and the staggering wealth of its founder Ivanishvili it has proven very difficult for opposition parties to challenge the Government.

Not only is the parliamentary opposition fragmented but its best-known leader, former president Mikheil Saakashvili, languishes in prison and has lost 45 kilos while on hunger strike. Saakashvili’s emaciated image is, for many, symbolic of the hollowed-out pro-EU aspirations he so loudly championed.

Georgian Dream leaders made little effort to disguise the intent of the bill. According to the chairman of the ruling party, the law would allow the Government to draw up a list of “groups opposing the country and the Church”. In so doing it would have a “preventative effect” as funding for these organisations would dry up.

With added menace, Prime Minister Irakli Garibashvili proclaimed that with the passage of the bill Georgia’s future no longer belonged to foreign agents but to patriots who supported the Government. He attacked civil society organisations, describing them their activities as “directly fighting against statehood and state interests.”


Huge protests

As has been so often the case in Georgia, its Government miscalculated and underestimated the strength of civil society. Mass protests have long been a catalyst for ousting governments in Georgia. On several occasions during recent decades street protests led to revolutionary upheaval and, ultimately, regime change. The protests invariably take place outside the national parliament on Rustaveli Avenue – the main thoroughfare of the capital Tbilisi. This is where the most recent clashes have also taken place.

It is perhaps in part because of the demonstrated power of protest in Georgia that the Government reacted with indiscriminate and disproportionate violence, using water cannon and CS gas to disperse huge crowds of young people, who defiantly waved a combination of EU, Georgian and Ukrainian flags.

Georgia’s historical experience suggests that power is not consolidated by such wanton displays of force but rather it is diminished and jeopardised. In these politically volatile situations, oppositions don’t necessarily win power, governments lose it.


International response

The confrontation between Government and civil society feeds into a much larger and more complicated narrative of Georgia’s relations with Russia and the West.

Georgia's ruling party has dropped controversial legislation that provoked mass protests

Thousands protest in Georgia against 'foreign agents' bill after police clamp down. Describing the foreign agent bill as “incompatible with EU values and standards”, the EU’s chief diplomat, Josep Borrell, said it countered Georgia’s stated objective of EU membership and would have a “chilling effect on civil society and media organisations”. Consequently, there would be “serious repercussions” for relations between Georgia and the EU.


The US Government response was also remarkable in both tone and substance. It decried the passing of the “Kremlin-inspired” law as “a dark day for democracy” which raised “real questions about the ruling party’s commitment to Euro-Atlantic integration”.

The Kremlin for its part accused Borrell of “crossing the limits of decency” and “putting pressure on Georgian citizens.”

What now?

For some years Georgia’s main pitch to the EU has been that it is an oasis of liberal democracy in a desert of authoritarian regimes. Consequently, democratic backsliding risks tarnishing that brand.


If Georgia becomes just another post-Soviet autocratic state the EU will rapidly lose interest in any membership bid.

The mainly young protesters on the streets of Tbilisi were motivated by a desperate need to reverse Georgia’s authoritarian trajectory and to re-chart the country’s destiny so that a strong state, protecting democratic and liberal values might win the confidence of the EU.

The draft law has been removed but the underlying issues remain. The Georgian Government appears to have learned little given it blames only “the machine of lies” for the reversal rather than the content of the bill itself. This suggests a tactical retreat but no change in overall strategy.

In sum, the attempt to push this divisive law through parliament has been a damaging own-goal, exposing deep divisions in Georgian society and unresolved tensions between Georgia’s government and the EU.

Donnacha Ó Beacháin is Professor of Politics at Dublin City University. For more than two decades he has worked and researched in the post-Soviet region and has been published widely on the subject.



Why shouldn’t they know who is funding their NGO’s and media?

The violence and aggression shown by rioting pro-EU thugs is disturbing, and makes one wonder whether this really is all about democracy versus authoritarianism. In any case, Georgia is not in Europe.

The MSM sell these events to the public as spontaneous happenings. They are well organised with paid participants 'bused' in. This one in Georgia is another Soros paid 'Colour Revolution' in the making.


It is important to see just how they operate, their CIA Soros financial backers, their ways of sometimes even using the same posters as was mentioned in connection with the Ukrainian 'revolution'. Anyway here is a starter:

1974 Portugal: The Carnation revolution
1986 Philippines: The Yellow revolution
2000 Serbia: The Bulldozer revolution
2003 Georgia: The Rose revolution
2004 Ukraine: The Orange revolution
2005 Kyrgyzstan: The Tulip revolution
2005 Lebanon: The Cedar revolution
2005 Kuwait: The Blue revolution
2006 Nepal: The Democracy movement aka the Jana Andolan II movement (not sure if it qualifies yet, but a superficial look appears to qualify it).
2007 Burma: The Saffran revolution
2008 Tunesia: The Jasmine revolution aka The Tunesien revolution
2008 Tibet: The Crimson revolution
2009 Iran: The Green revolution
2009 Thailand: The Redshirt revolution
2011 Egypt: The January 25 revolution aka The Egyptian revolution
2011 Kazakhstan: Attempt of incitement for mass riots. Failed.
2011 Algeria: Attempt failed to gain momentum and thus no color
2013 Ukraine: The Maidan revolution
2014 Hong kong: The Umbrella revolution aka Occupy Hong kong
2015 Armenia: Failed attempt
2015 Macedonia: Attempt still in progress
2020 Belarus
2022 Kazakhstan.
2023 Georgia Rose revolution

Default Georgia Pulls ‘Foreign Agent’ Bill After Massive Violent Protests, Parliament Brawl

Georgia Pulls ‘Foreign Agent’ Bill After Massive Violent Protests, Parliament Brawl





Lawmakers for the ruling Georgian Dream party in that country announced on Thursday they would “unconditionally withdraw” a bill that would designate organizations receiving more than 20% of funding abroad as foreign agents, responding to violent, incessant protests in Tbilisi, which continued after the withdrawal announcement.

On Wednesday night, Tbilisi experienced ongoing violence, including clashes between protesters and police and the vandalizing of cars, flipped over and left in the middle of the street. Opponents of the “foreign agent” bill argue that its language is too similar to a law passed in Vladimir Putin’s Russia and accuse Georgian Dream of attempting to “Russify” the country. Georgia endured a brutal invasion by Putin in 2008 that has left its political scene deeply scarred and skeptical of anything that could be interpreted as Russian influence. The invasion, which Moscow insisted was necessary to protect both Russia’s national security and separatists in the affected areas of Abkhazia and South Ossetia.


“In this situation were we supposed to just wipe away bloody snot and hang our heads?” Putin asked at the time, claiming that American forces were threatening Russia’s borders. The administration of President George W. Bush aggressively denied involvement in the separatist regions at the time.

While the Georgian invasion took place over a decade ago, the ongoing – and tactically similar – Russian invasion of Ukraine rekindled anti-Russian sentiment in Georgia. In response, supporters of the bill have taken to Georgian airwaves to argue that the purpose of the legislation is to ensure transparency with influential political organizations and that it has little to do with Russia.

“Georgian society absolutely deserves to know which organizations are being financed, from which sources,” Georgian Dream lawmaker Givi Mikanadze explained in a recent interview. “We are talking about transparency and having an obligation (to the Georgian people).”


The introduction of the “foreign agent” bill prompted thousands to surround the Georgian Parliament in Tbilisi on Monday to protest it and demand closer ties to the greater West. That protest evolved into a violent resistance that is currently ongoing despite Georgian Dream claiming to withdraw the bill.

“As a party of government responsible to every member of society, we have decided to unconditionally withdraw this bill that we supported,” Georgian Dream said in a formal statement on Thursday. “We can see that the adopted bill has caused differences of opinion in society. The machine of lies managed to present the bill in a negative light and mislead a certain part of the public,” the Party lamented. “The false label of ‘Russian law’ was attached to the bill, and its adoption in the first reading was presented in the eyes of a part of the public as a departure from the European course.”

The statement concluded with a promise to “better explain” the bill when “the emotions subside,” which many opponents interpreted as an indication that the Party intended to reintroduce it in the future when.

Shortly before the bill withdrawal promise, on Wednesday, Prime Minister Irakli Garibashvili appeared to defend the legislation, calling the Georgian opposition “degenerate.”

“The future of our country does not belong and will no longer belong to foreign agents or servants of foreign countries,” he proclaimed during a visit to Germany.

Police deployed water cannons on Wednesday night and tear gas at an unruly crowd of protesters. Some in the crowd shot fireworks and flares, while others confronted police trying to contain the thousands of people.

The Georgian outlet Civil Georgia, citing Georgian legal experts, noted that parliamentary procedure does not technically allow the bill, now adopted for a reading, to be withdrawn. Instead, “to remove the law from the legislative pipeline, the Parliament would have to vote it down in the second reading.”

While Georgian Dream introduced and supported the bill, President Salome Zurabishvili did not, and she published a statement on Thursday celebrating its defeat. “I want to congratulate the whole society on the first such victory. I welcome the right decision taken by the government to withdraw this law,” she wrote. “This is a decision from them to take into account the real power of the people, what was shown on the streets of Tbilisi. If we are a democratic country, in a democratic country the Government and Parliament cannot ignore the people’s voice, the will of the people.” Zurabishvili told Georgians not to fear any particular law. “I will veto any law, and I have said this before, which will not be in line with our European path,” she pledged. “This veto is no longer an empty veto, because you stand behind this veto and I am counting on you, if you are counting on me, I really count on you.”

The bill was controversial since its introduction, in part because the president did not support it and threatened to veto it. On Monday, when lawmakers were scheduled to debate the bill, thousands convened outside, surrounding the Parliament building and demanding the bill be withdrawn.

Inside, lawmakers came to blows over the legislation; reports indicated that the chairman of the parliamentary legal affairs committee hit an opposition party member, triggering the brief but violent melee.

According to Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty (RFE/RL), protest leaders said on Thursday they did not expect to cease protesting “until the government formally denounced the foreign agents bill altogether and released all those detained during protests.” As of Thursday, authorities have documented 134 arrests during the protests, charging most of them with property damage, vandalism, or attacking police officers. Georgian law enforcement authorities have tallied approximately 50 injured police officers.

“The protest is not just about the bill, but about the Russian nature of the Georgian Dream. There is no trust towards them or their word,” the head of the opposition Droa party, said on Thursday, “and track record serves as the empirical proof. There is no legal mechanism to withdraw the draft.”

Protests continued into Thursday night, featuring thousands of people waving European Union and Ukrainian flags – a sign of defiance of Moscow and listening to speakers in opposition of the bill.





This is not Russification but Americanization. In Russia this law has been applied only some years ago and this law is a calc of the US, Canada and Australia law. In the US this law exists since 1938

The Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA) was enacted in 1938. FARA requires certain agents of foreign principals who are engaged in political activities or other activities specified under the statute to make periodic public disclosure of their relationship with the foreign principal, as well as activities, receipts and disbursements in support of those activities. Disclosure of the required information facilitates evaluation by the government and the American people of the activities of such persons in light of their function as foreign agents. The FARA Unit of the Counterintelligence and Export Control Section (CES) in the National Security Division (NSD) is responsible for the administration and enforcement of FARA.

Mrs Martell should work in North Korea or the USSR for some Pravda paper publishing ideological propaganda garbage articles.
The US media have turned into the worst Goebbels/USSR communist propaganda mouthpieces. Journalism is gone.


Russia has the same law as the US, Canada and Australia. Just a calc. Nothing different. We both understand that all kind of NGO in Georgia do not want this law. Billions of USD for geo-politics will become obvious and the citizens would know who protects who's interests and who is paying this "opposition" to protect these interests.
There is one particular organization that hates this law in Georgia, Russia or Ukraine - this is USAID. Promoting "democracy" = destabilizing the country, start civil wars and a mess.


There is another law in the US called "advocating government overthrow" = 20 years in prison. If the same law would be applied in any of the former USSR country - the US state department and propaganda media would scream - dictatorship!!!!
There is a saying from Stalin. During the Yalta conference in Crimea, Russia in 1945 in his interview he has said: I have always thought that a democracy is the will of the people but Mr.Roosevelt has corrected me - a democracy is the will of the American people. Best description of today's crazy democracy crusader policy of the US around the Globe.


I wish our Congress would do stuff like this.


You have it since 1938 and the law is called FARA

Default CIA, NED: Georgia and Colour Revolutions: “Oink, Oink, Squeal like a Pig!”




Spring is finally here, and it has been a very mild winter for Europe. However, the month of March can be very unpredictable, and not only in terms of the weather.

The National Endowment for Democracy, NED, CIA, is hard at work in Moldova and Georgia, and coming soon to Turkey, if it doesn’t just let it be and let nature run its course in the wake of the earthquake and the political fallout. I still don’t understand how NATO considers it has any potency without Turkey getting on board with its aggressive behaviour.

What was that wise tale about “once upon a time how firemen put out fires and did not start them, when discussing the burning books, as in Fahrenheit 451?”
The same can be said about NATO, and whether it was actually a defence organisation to begin with.

I have the impression that that is just another rumour someone started. Now there are more rumours of the same kind, that the usual suspects are funding NGOs and groups that are looking for regime change in Israel.

Has the world gone crazy, or have I just woken to realise how things are? I bought some onion sets and a big bag of fertiliser today, Russian-made; I am drawing the line and planning for the future, as it may be a hard winter. The onions have made me think of the many levels and layers of what is going on in the world – the more you peel them back, the more you find.

The Night the Lights Went Out in Georgia

The most ironic of all situations is what is happening in Georgia, with the apparent effort to change the government; this is not a homegrown manifestation but an invasive one. It is not as if it was not expected, even predicated, and there is more to come.

I suspect there is a contingency for not letting Georgia go as Ukraine did in 2014. However the effort is backfiring. Ukraine may take down NATO, the EU, Georgia and Moldova like a house of cards. The West, especially the US, has spent and continues to spend too much on Ukraine. But not out of the goodness of their collective hearts. It is no wonder that some pundits and many Americans think it is high time to walk away, even in the style of Afghanistan!

Many Americans think Georgia is where the movie “Deliverance” took place. All they know is “oink, oink, and squeal like a pig” (if you understand that movie reference). Now however it is Georgia which is seeking to be delivered from all the squealing inflicted upon it.

Tbilisi has been in the news due to a foreign agent registration law which the democratically elected parliament wanted to pass. A group of NGOs, funded by the NED and CIA, etc., would not have it.

So the Government backed down, under threat of sanctions from the EU and US, at least for now. Its members understand they are next in the crosshairs, and are expecting something like the bloodbath in Maiden, 2014.

Things are quiet now, however it is not over, as there are still plans by the US and its friends to replace the current government. I suspect that because things are going better for Russia in Ukraine they need Georgia as the backup location, and Moldova if that fails.

Scott Ritter, a former US Marine and frequent contributor to Russian information and international talk programnes, writes about the reality of the US when it comes to Georgia:

To most Americans, it is just food, wine, and some fun dancing. This is the reality of the society you Georgians are betting your future on—America doesn’t care about you. Americans don’t even really like you.

We barely tolerate your food and wine, and we view your culture as a mere curiosity.
History clearly shows that we are not going to die for you. You exist only to serve our larger geopolitical goals and objectives.
You are nothing more than part of the “belt of instability” being installed by the United States along Russia’s periphery.
Reflect on that for a moment—Georgia’s American purpose is to generate regional instability.
It is not going to be Americans who will pay the price, [as they already think they own Georgia and Georgians].
Finally, we have a wake-up call for Georgia and Georgians. Unfortunately many Georgians don’t want to come to the realisation that they’re inviting in and propping up a worse invader, who as Scott Ritter pointed out does not care about them as a people at all, but only how they can be used to fulfill their BIGGER objectives.

Meanwhile Back in the USA

The only problem with the plan is that many in the West, especially Americans, are not happy with higher taxes, more inflation and less money in their pockets, and can’t see why the US is involved in a proxy war with Russia using an intermediate country they could care less about, and would even have a hard time finding on a map, i.e. Ukraine.

The US prefers to export all its money to wars they have no reason being involved with in the first place, as in Syria, keeping poor people poor, and letting US citizens get poorer. That is what makes the world spin out of control; the rulers are only serving themselves, and do not care about those who they purport to help.

Seeing the situation on the ground, and knowing many of the personalities involved, I am glad that we at NEO and others in the alternative media have been warning the Georgian government what was going to happen with articles and associated interviews with Georgian media.

Particularly as it is now apparent why former President Mikheil Saakashvili came back to Georgia, risking everything, despite being a fugitive from justice thanks to a long list of financial crimes and human rights violations.

He is currently behind bars for just a few of these of these various crimes. He would doubtless be facing more charges, but has acted well and served as the useful idiot, a short fuse for a ticking time bomb.

What has happened to Saakasahvili, who terrorised the population of the US behalf for ten years, shows what the rest of the country can expect for thinking the US is a genuine friend. There is a strong attempt by the US State Department to make sure that Georgia can be turned into a potential Maidan 2014 if need be—as we can see from some of their media releases.

As the perfect storm for Foreign Influence Gathers

Trying to pass the blame to Russia is ironic, considering the cat is already out of the bag. As the US Embassy press statement reads: U.S. Embassy Statement on Parliament’s Rushed Advancement of Kremlin-Inspired Legislation on So-Called “Foreign Influence”. This is of course the same US which devoted billions of dollars to preventing Russian interference in any country, and invented such laws for this purpose, until Georgia and other countries elected leaders who actually took them at their word, and actually wanted Russian influence to be removed when the US had spent that money for show.

What is unfolding in Georgia is so scripted it is as if it came out of an NED regime change playbook, as in Kyiv 2014 and many other venues in the spider web of US operations. Many Georgians, especially the over 50s and even a few in the younger generation, are starting to think: “We will be better off with the Russians!”

Pigs are Pigs


Many real stakeholders in the West are too preoccupied with other things, including banking meltdowns and political standoffs that may implode the entire system, than to care what is happening in the latest foreign hotspot. Most Americans, the silent majority as Nixon used to describe them, think Georgia is just north of Florida, and fewer see any deliverance other than a Nick Betty inconvenient moment when it was demanded by his hosts that he squeal-like-a-pig.

To the extent Americans know anything about Georgia and Georgian culture, this “knowledge” is limited to a superficial appreciation of Georgian cuisine and dance, and the fact that Uncle Joe Stalin was from there. The majority of Americans do not even know that Georgia exists.

There was a song by the Beatles that mentioned Georgia by name – the one that was then controlled by Russia: “Back in the USSR” name-checked a few Soviet republics, including Georgia. Other than that, Georgia hasn’t been mentioned in American pop culture at all.

I am too close to much of what is going on in the former Soviet Union and the Middle East and Asia to not realise that its history, as recorded, seems to be engineered by wars, threats of wars and invasions of one empire by another, which are not undertaken to see which one is superior but whose ideology can stand the test of time.

As an insider with a US military background, I should be, by all accounts, on the side of the foreign influences who want to degrade Georgia to the level of a banana republic. But I am on Georgia’s side, because this “foreign influence” should not be of any consequence if it is benign, and it is only the West which does not want to be held accountable for its actions in Georgia. .

Here are some questions to ponder:

Why is the average Georgian protestor or youth against the foreign agents law anyway?
Why would a Georgian not want to know the origin and funding of their news sources?
Being pro-Western is cool, and the more independent young Georgians claim to be, the more they want to be what all their friends are. Some of the NGOs here, such as the Franklin Institute, have been programming them for this very purpose. I know one 15-year-old student who has been attending US and foreign civil society training as part of her high school education. She tells me how they are trying to brainwash them. The same is true with many private schools, including some of the very prestigious ones, including those with IB programmes such as the European School. Basically, if you want a better life you have to do what the US wants, even though you will never be rewarded for doing it because you only exist to serve their purposes.

The Peace Corps, no longer anything like the idealistic initiative of the Kennedy years, is in Georgia too. There is also a Fifth Column of Ukrainian Nationalists backed by members of the Georgian Legion who have been serving as mercenaries in Ukraine, who are funded by the NED, CIA, USAID and crowd funding.

Those who stand behind Saakashvili are not known for using non-violent methods. In fact they are cold blooded killers who taught him everything he knew.—and what to say. The proverbial road to hell is paved with good intentions, which never go beyond being expressed as good intentions. In the case of Georgia, it will be stained with blood.

School for Scoundrels

Jeffrey Silverman, the Georgian Bureau Chief for Veterans Today, and contributed to the newly established, Intel Drop publication, has worked in public schools and several private universities and public colleges in the country. He describes how in his own MA diplomacy programmes in the US he was taught how to take over countries. First destroy the education, local sustainable economies and culture, rewrite history, and then go after religion and its leaders by getting them to Westernize.

Silverman has spent 20 years watching Georgian students become progressively more academically and morally degraded. “If you could see the difference between the students I had in 2000 and the new crop, each year the level is less and less, and this is not by happenstance.”

Georgia will be like Casablanca was in the famous 1941 movie, a place for shady deals, dirty business and backstabbing, where companies set up their entities as forward operating bases for US proxy conflicts. It is becoming a very wild place which will serve many purposes, where the Great Game will be reinvested.

Let us not forget 2014 and who hired Maidan snipers who were mostly from Georgia. Now it is time to watch how the West has taken the media war in Ukraine to unprecedented levels, at the expense of the truth and survival of humanity. The forewarning of what is spinning out of control can be found everywhere.

On social media platforms, even in some papers, the script remains the same: it is all about support for freedom—but whose freedom, and at whose expense? Georgia should be careful not to allow those who have been militarised, especially those Ukrainians and Georgian and other foreign volunteers who have been fighting in Ukraine, to enter or move freely in Georgia. They need to be detained, vetted and placed under close supervision – as many have been trained for a NED-CIA orchestrated change of government in Georgia.

Georgian fugitives, criminals ,the disillusioned and other thrill seekers have nothing to lose and everything to gain by participating in ongoing coup efforts—or at least they think they do! However their brighter tomorrow is the same one promised in every other invasion, the one the natives are still waiting for, and blaming the US for not delivering.

The next coup attempt is planned for the 9th of April,
a National Holiday in Georgia. To all those pro EU kids and supposed adults who complained that the Georgian Police response to the recent violent protests by those opposed to the FARA law was “undemocratic,” you should take a look at what is going on now in France and what may come next in Georgia.
