At a briefing on Monday, Georgian Parliament Speaker Shalva Papuashvili criticized o, accusing her of “threatening the population with bloodshed” and “undermining state institution.”
He accused her because she refused to accept the outcome of last week’s presidential vote to select her successor and the October parliamentary elections.
At a briefing, Papuashvili asserted, “We have seen many bad things during our independence, but this is the first time we have witnessed a president threatening the population with bloodshed.”
He says, “During the end of her presidency, Salome Zourabichvili decided not only to disassemble state institutions but also to create a shameful mess and joke in the country for the world to see.”
The Speaker also said the President had faced impeachment procedures last year for her unauthorized foreign visits, calling her a “violator of the Constitution”, and added her refusal to recognize the results of the October elections was also a “grave political and moral offense”.
Shalva Papuashvili stated, “Salome Zourabichvili has become another president who is directly engaged in submitting her country to foreign influences. He operates under the same scenario written by the same forces that were created for one of his predecessors.”
He also discussed the background of the 2021 municipal elections. He said, “Let us recall that just before the election night, former President Saakashvili was confirmed by a foreign country’s secret agency to enter Georgia covertly to overturn the results.”
“Even today, we observe that the electoral process has been chosen, the organizations influenced by foreign and local forces have been chosen, and former high-ranking officials have been chosen to further the destabilization and revolutionary process of the nation. “The handwriting is identical,” Shalva Papuashvili marked.
He quoted, “The false president Zourabichvili does not recognize the elections held fairly, where he freely expressed the will of 2 million 60 thousand citizens; does not recognize the choice of Georgian people, the elected government, the elected president. Seeks support from foreign countries to encourage unconstitutional, violent processes.”
