Tbilisi Mayor Kakha Kaladze, general secretary of the ruling Georgian Democratic Dream party, told Georgian Channel One that the US decision to impose sanctions on some Georgian judges without providing any evidence is unacceptable. According to him, this step is incomprehensible, especially against the background of Washington’s attitude towards the period of power of President Mikhail Saakashvili.
“The people who sanctioned the judges today told us that Saakashvili’s administration was a beacon of democracy. We remember what happened in the country before 2012. The court was an ordinary notary. “Everything is relative, this data can be easily accessed by anyone. We remember the criminal, bloody regime that Saakashvili’s government represented until 2012.”
As the Georgian Dream Secretary General points out, like-minded people live in Georgia and will be able to draw their own conclusions from the US decision on sanctions against judges. He added that the Georgians would make a “correct analysis” of such a move.
