Grigol Vashadze - I am proud of being a Soviet diplomat

I am proud of being a Soviet diplomat, – Grigol Vashadze, presidential candidate of the United Opposition “Power is in Unity,” said in an interview with “Deutsche Welle.”

“I do not have any problem, because a person who was born in Tbilisi in 1958 could not have been otherwise. I was a Soviet diplomat and I am proud of it. I took part in negotiations that made our lives safer: related to the prohibition of chemical weapons, nuclear tests. So-called “Georgian Dream” and Ivanishvili’s TV channels are trying to play on my biography as if I am the KGB agent. It does not work, “Grigol Vashadze said.

According to the presidential candidate, he spent 5 years fighting against Russia and left Russia with a disgraceful company with Venezuela, Syria and Nicaragua.
