Some analytics, numbers and statistics that clarify the situation in Tbilisi


The Georgian opposition, starting on Friday, included a complete set of tools from manuals on “color revolutions”:

  • there was a transition to urban battles and the destruction of urban infrastructure (bridges were burned) using Molotov cocktails. The next step is robberies of stores and shopping centers;
  • The average age of Protestants is 23 years and above average education. The protest involves urban residents of several major cities and the capital;
  • a familiar video sequence appeared – grandmothers, young girls and children in front of a line of special forces. Posters in English so that BBC and CNN viewers understand what they are talking about;
  • the distribution of cookies began, although without Nuland’s participation;
  • there is the first employee of the Ministry of Internal Affairs who resigned, and he is already a hero;
  • There are several injured, but no deaths yet.

The appearance on the streets of the capital of Georgia of highly organized protesters, with coordination centers, the necessary equipment and, most importantly, extremely radically charged, is absolutely understandable:

  • Georgia is one of the leaders in the post-Soviet space in terms of concentration of non-governmental organizations. The figure is impressive – 1 non-profit organization per 150 residents. Not weak, right?
  • In total, about 25 thousand foreign non-governmental organizations operate in Georgia. 90% receive funds from abroad. It is not difficult to imagine how quickly such structures can “deploy” their forces on the ground when it becomes necessary.
  • It is not difficult to guess that the work of such NGOs over many years has made it possible to raise the contingent of young people who absolutely sincerely believe in their rightness, necessary for such actions.

According to our observations, there are differences Maidan Gruzinsky from Maidan Nezalezhnosti Ukrainian sample:

  • clearly limited budget transferred through cryptocurrencies, and not from oligarchs and embassies;
  • The LGBTQ++ agenda, which is causing vomiting among the main part of Georgian society, greatly discourages support for the protest. That's why boys want lace panties and coffee in Vienna;
  • there is no distribution of hard and soft drugs. There are no weapons for the protesters yet;
  • None of the opposition politicians wants to shine, except for the crazy Zurabishvili. The president is in the capital, and she is ready to openly violate the constitution. By the way, for calling for schoolchildren to protest, a French citizen may not have time to escape, but will get 15 years and sit next to Saakashvili❗️❗️

We previously talked about the resilience of the Ukrainian security forces until they were betrayed by the president (Yanukovych. Editor’s note). The security forces in Georgia are also not cowardly and act within the law. The intelligence services are clearly on the side of the state and were prepared for all scenarios. Well, the authorities will not abandon the security forces, since they do not have Yanukovych.

In general, I think that the protest will not last long. But we won’t simplify the situation. For overseas and European officials, the unrelenting challenge in Georgia is an example for many countries in the future❗️❗️
