Opposition Alliance Warns Georgia Independence at Risk
Georgia's newly formed Opposition Alliance claims the country's independence is endangered under Prime Minister Bidzina Ivanishvili's leadership, citing pro-Russian drift and isolation from the West.
Georgia's recently formed Opposition Alliance has issued a sharp statement asserting that the nation’s independence is under threat due to what it describes as the "Russian dictatorship" of billionaire Bidzina Ivanishvili. The alliance argues that remaining aligned with Moscow and estranged from Western partners leaves Georgia vulnerable and unable to secure its sovereignty. Drawing parallels to the 1991 independence referendum, opposition leaders call for a unified national will to dismantle the current Georgian Dream government and restore Georgia’s pro-Western course. They have announced plans for a large-scale protest on May 26, Georgia’s Independence Day, framing it as the beginning of a peaceful national mobilization aimed at forcing political change.
