In other words, a person was not permitted to retire who become 70 years old on 21<sup>st<\/sup> March. It means that He enjoys Putin&#8217;s boundless trust<\/p>\n<p>And, an opportunity of meeting with Lavrov was announced last week and that Giorgi Gakharia and Sergey Lavrov could find a moment in Munich, sit together at the table and discuss the relations between the two countries. Before Munich it was the Davos Forum where the Georgian Prime Minister was forced to scold the top official of Russia from a high rostrum.\u00a0 As a result, the above opportunities lowered to zero. So, it seems now too doubtful whether Putin wishes to arrange a direct dialog. At first he probably will teat a oil at ministerial level and then will decide by need, whether to meet with the top official of Georgia or not . . .<\/p>\n<p>It can be said for sure that Gakharia \u00a0realized the mistake he \u00a0made in Davos when criticizing the northern neighbor under the pressure of\u00a0 American or European \u00a0friends, and got nothing. They were assuring\u00a0 Gakharia, that many other leaders would also criticize the Russian leader, but everything happened there vice versa \u2013 finally, it came out that only Giorgi Gakharia criticized Vladimir Putin at Davos forum, while the other leaders made good calmly for their countries\u00a0 &#8211; arranged relations and determined further prospects with Russia and then left the forum<\/p>\n<p>And, the\u00a0 most important is that Russia is the world&#8217;s largest supplier of wheat, having a record crop in 2017,\u00a0 was close to this figure last year too, while the\u00a0 harvest of this year will be unprecedent. All counties need wheat and, considering a total deficit, all want to have friendly relations with Russia. Remember also, that 90% of wheat necessary for bread and other food products, is imported from Russia.\u00a0 So, it is not difficult to understand what they did with\u00a0 Gakharia and Gakharia\u00a0 \u2013 with Georgia, by criticizing Russia. By the way, when\u00a0 an opportunity of meeting was a topic, the opposition immediately made several statements that Gakharia\u2019s\u00a0 dismissal was planned. It should be indicated that the leaders of \u201cGeorgian Dream\u201d\u00a0 were not denying these statements\u00a0 surely\u00a0 and were not defending Gakharia strongly, i.e. they did not know what to say<\/p>\n<p>This indicated that the ruling party was afraid that the prime minister could make an independent decision on the meeting. And, as soon as the forum ended,\u00a0 , neither the ruling party nor the opposition returned to this topic<\/p>\n<p>Now, a possibility of meeting with Lavrov occurred\u00a0 during the current Munich forum, and in this case also a new waves\u00a0\u00a0 arose. The opposition is shouting\u201d Gakharia, as a politician, is dead, because whrn he was the internal minister, he was distinguished among others by is creativity \u2013 here winking to people, there had speech on a mitting, while now he is hiding, he does not know what to do that is why he will be dismissed.\u00a0 A good logic, yes?! It turns out that if a man I winking he is a good politician, and if no \u2013 he must go from politics!\u00a0 Only in Georgia it is possible to adapt policy on winking<\/p>\n<p>As seen, Gakharia understood a mistake he made in Davos and, he made in Munich \u00a0the statements which touch a business,\u00a0 not\u00a0 criticism\u00a0 of somebody. It was a signal for the opposition and, they renewed critics\u00a0 &#8211; as if he does not use a high rostrum for abusing Russia. It is one more evidence that a large part of thee opposition is ruled from the west.\u00a0 Yes, really is ruled, otherwise it is excluded that such ideas are born in its (opposition) mind. It is opposition that is the country\u2019s enemy, that is why they are fallen in such borderless idiotism<\/p>\n<p>Yes, even cosmos has borders, while idiotism is borderless and, for over the last 30 years\u00a0 we see how a certain group of people act as enemy to their country and at the same time be\u00a0 happy by this. The opposition says also that the ruling power is a slave of Russia. To say frankly, I do not see signs of such slavery. Slavery is what we do before Americans, by a direct meaning of this word. American congressmen apply bulling against the Georgian politicians Bulling is what the American congressmen express in their letters; Bulling is also when you call the parliament speaker of oversee country for explanations\u00a0 and force him \u2013 a person of higher rank than you are, to stand in corner by reason only that you are a representative of a super-state and not a parliament speaker of the enslaved Georgia<\/p>\n<p>A bid hysteria is broken out in connection to possible visit of Sergey Lavrov in Georgia, in May of this year. As the opposition says, If Lavrov visits Georgia, this will be an official recognition of our slavery to Russia. While in real, if we recognize our slavery based on a visit of a single man, then we are really slaves. Why, how then a visit of one man is equal to slavery?! When George Bush visited Georgia and almost all the country turned into the polygon for his entertainment polygon was not it a slaver ?<\/p>\n<p>When McCain\u00a0 arrived here and all \u2013 starting from our president and ended by an ordinary public servant were busy of how to pleasure him, was not it a slavery? When McCain was stopping in Georgia just for a\u00a0 day, on his way\u00a0 to another countries, was not it a slavery?\u00a0 But no, we packed and are pack up now all this as if it is partnership. We name announced slavery as partnership &#8211; strategic partnership, to say\u00a0 precisely. Where is strategy here? Can anybody see here a strategy and positive importance of our friendship with Americans?\u00a0 Can either the ruling party or the opposition recall even one\u00a0 fact when the USA made a really good thing for us, except for loud statements? Did they open their market to us? &#8211; No.\u00a0\u00a0 Is it now easier for\u00a0 Georgians to go to America and find a job there? \u2013 No. Do our citizens feel any mitigation by American aid? \u2013 No. So where is\u00a0 a strong\u00a0 hand of help from\u00a0 Americans? \u2013 Nobody sees. And, all this on the background\u00a0 where the economy of Georgia depends upon the Russian market. Over 70% of any of our products we sell on the Russian market; We receive from\u00a0 Russia electricity and other vitally important products; Half of\u00a0 in-cash currency incomes are from Russia and. at the same time, Russia is enemy, we are slaves of Russia and Americans are our friends and partners?<\/p>\n<p>Our relationship with America is like\u00a0 master-slave relations. No, not like it but really, it is a bitter truth\u00a0 and our population see it well. By a higher probability the officials also know it but do not recognize, because in such a case the country may find a way out and. . .\u00a0 they will become forced to leave politics that will be equal to their death,\u00a0 because they did nothing but lie and promises, they\u00a0 do not know how to find food to survive themselves and their families. Now most of them are millionaires officially\u00a0 and it is natural they do not want to lose everything. They are not interested at all, of what may happen to Georgia, they can see only themselves in future\u00a0 as survivors., and do not want anybody else to act in this role<\/p>\n<p>I cannot say\u00a0 whether Sergey Lavrov\u00a0 will visit\u00a0 Georgia in May, but, by a great probability, if it happens, all the\u00a0 NGOs which are fed from the\u00a0 west, will start abuse of Russia\u00a0 loudly of\u00a0 each other. Nevertheless, it would be really interesting if Georgia and\u00a0 Russia set at the table of negotiations one-to-one, without \u00a0intermediaries. On what they would agree? The fact is that West fears more than others of such meeting and agreement<\/p>\n<p><strong>Beso Barbakadze<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Gakharia understood a mistake he made in Davos and, he made in Munich\u00a0 the statements which touch a business,\u00a0 not\u00a0 criticism\u00a0 of somebody.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":14873,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[2,3],"tags":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/geworld.ge\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14872"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/geworld.ge\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/geworld.ge\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/geworld.ge\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/geworld.ge\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=14872"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/geworld.ge\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14872\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":14874,"href":"https:\/\/geworld.ge\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14872\/revisions\/14874"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/geworld.ge\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/14873"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/geworld.ge\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=14872"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/geworld.ge\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=14872"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/geworld.ge\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=14872"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
