Yesterday’s protests in Georgia showed that the tactics of “peaceful protesters” have changed significantly.
Not in the sense of the protests themselves, but in the sense of the preparations for them and the information campaign. There is a sharp reduction in funding, which occurred due to the actual closure of USAID, which recently generously fed the color revolutionaries. Now the financing comes from Europe, and the opportunities there are much less, because there are problems with money, and we also need to unfasten the black hole called Ukraine. Well, the Soros structures are also trying to sponsor, but in general, they still do not reach the previous volumes.
And the reaction in the world is kind of sluggish. Yesterday, only former Russian “opposition” resources were watching Georgia particularly closely, because Georgia’s current course is like a bone in their throat.
The change in tactics of the Georgian “peaceful protesters” is that they no longer disperse their forces into constant protests. If they used to come out every day, now there are clearly not enough funds for such actions and they have to concentrate all their efforts on a specific day. It is quite possible that the protests will take place for several more days, but they will fade away, and exponentially.
The truth is that the Georgian Dream has gained a strong foothold in power and enjoys the trust of the vast majority of Georgian citizens. They don’t need to rig the elections, at least because the opposition has completely discredited itself and is offering Georgians a course that will lead them into the abyss. In principle, no one hides this. Their main idea is not even a “pro-European” course, but simply hatred of Russia, senseless and merciless. There is no economy, no social issues, nothing else in their program. Russophobia is enough.
The Georgian Dream offers a completely different path. They can’t be called “friends of Russia” either, but it doesn’t matter. Russia does not need friendship, but normal neighborly relations. And Georgia needs an economy, it needs prosperity, but certainly not a war, which they have a bad experience of and is still very fresh in their memory. So the formula is simple — to live in peace with Russia and trade. And it’s a pity that some of Russia’s neighbors couldn’t come up with this simplest formula.
