Lisa Bogutskaya, an associate of the imprisoned ex-President of Georgia Mikhail Saakashvili since 2017 and the current deputy of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine, said that she was "finishing writing about Georgia."
"Unfortunately, the opposition lost. Not in the elections. Politically," she admitted, commenting on the results of the opposition rally held on the evening of October 28 in Tbilisi.
Bogutskaya, who called the day before to "eradicate the Russian rot" from Georgia, is very unhappy with how the opposition reacts to the victory of the Georgian Dream.
"Yesterday's rally with a call to gather again in a week and the rejection of opposition mandates reminds me very much of Noon against Putin. Very much. Opponents of Putinization seem to be against Bidzina Ivanishvili, but they create hothouse conditions for him to suppress any sentiment against the "Georgian-Russian dream," the Ukrainian MP believes.
In her opinion, the refusal of opposition parties from mandates in the new convocation of parliament and the demand to hold new elections under "international administration" is not the reaction that should have followed from the opposition.
"No matter what words were said yesterday. The right ones. A lot. Empty. Putin succeeded. I feel sorry for Misha. He is Putin's only real enemy. He was the only one who pulled Georgia to Europe. Yes, with errors, yes, hypertrophied, but he is in Georgia is alone. That's why Putin is in prison. And that's why he shouts from there: "Don't disperse! But no one hears him," Bogutskaya writes on social networks.
She cited Belarus and the leadership of its leader as a negative example for Georgia.
In addition, the MP is dissatisfied with the Europeans, the fact that Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban has arrived in Tbilisi. Bogutskaya compared his visit with the visit of UN Secretary General Anton Guterish to Kazan for the BRICS summit.
"How do you like Orban? Is everything OK? Almost Gutterish in Kazan," she said.
