After almost 2-tear pause, the USA al last appointed its extraordinary and plenipotentiary ambassador to Georgia, Mrs. Kelly Degnan. The ambassador will arrive in Tbilisi very soon. What instructions the USDA ambassador will bring? – a question arises, and I will say it now, why:
During the last 28-years period of a formal independence, Georgia accustomed to living by instructions. None of the governments of Georgia had its own independent internal policy, to say nothing about the foreign policy, with a direct meaning of these words. Therefore, the almost zero-rate interest of Donald Trump’s administration towards Georgia and as a result – nonappointment of American ambassador here, caused a shortage of instructions to Georgia, the situation became less stable and, almost everything mixed with each other: the 20 June events, camp-playing in front of the Parliament building, at first a promise and then a scandalous reject of the proportional elections, spill of a toxic substance in the hall of parliament. . . Smiling Nino Burjanadze back to Bokeria and then her trip to Moscow, then, a new so called hero – doctor Vazha, then Shalva Natelashvili threats Ivanishvili with America, inflation of GEL rate fall to a new negative record level
On this background, the state’s Rusophobia gas become an item of a internal use – the current government has neither power nor wish to confront actively with Russia. This is good. That is why the American lobbyists and linked-to-them Georgian “transatlantists” broke a scandal when Irma Inashvili appeared unexpectedly at the place of therir meeting and acted in a non-transatlantists manner
But, a threat that Georgia will be once again involved in the anti-Russian (and anti-Georgian too) adventure, is high. Lobbyists are not calmed down – the American neoliberals (or neo—conservators, despite mutually excluding nature of these two meanings, they are one and the same group) created a new, additional supporting force ibn Georgia, in person of Mamuka Khazaradze’s group. Kzhazarazder, with a primitivity improper to a businessman says that the highway to Russia is a ground for unhindered entry invasion of the Russian tanks to Georgia.
On this background , the US ambassador Kelly Degnan will soon arrive to Georgia. I hope she will have “rioght” instructions, but a warning of the Russia’s foreign minister spread on the ministry’s website, deserves our attentions:
“A real threat for escalation of tension and the main challenge of a regional security in the South Caucasus, is an accelerated military-and-political development of NATO on the territory of Georgia. We are witnesses of advanced political and military-technical collaboration of the Alloance and Washington with Georgia. We hope the USA and NATO will understand seriously our warnings and stop incitement of Georgia against Russia. By our side, we remain interested in a consistent normalization of bilateral relations” – official statement by the Russia’s foreign minister says
Is such a statement accidental just before the arrival of the new US ambassador to Georgia ?!
