Lelo opposition party member Ana Natsvlishvili remarked on PM Irakli Kobakhidze’s statement that “In a phone talk, one of the European Commissioners listed several measures that Western politicians might take if the veto on the transparency law is overcome. While listing these measures, he mentioned, “You’ve seen what happened to [Slovak Prime Minister] Fico and you should be very careful.”

Natsvlishvili believes “Kobakhidze is spreading structured, targeted, well-thought-out Kremlin disinformation.”

“People might initially assume that Irakli Kobakhidze requires medical assistance or that this subject belongs in the humor genre. However, Kobakhidze is spreading structured, targeted, well-thought-out Kremlin-written disinformation, which is so ridiculous that it could make people laugh or gravitate towards the medical genre.

This is Russian disinformation, which appears to be utterly ludicrous and delusional, but it actually has extremely detrimental intentions for the Georgian state. Kobakhidze, who disseminates Kremlin-written disinformation, is not Georgia’s prime minister; rather, he is a Kremlin propagandist who will have to leave office through elections,” Ana Natsvlishvili asserted.
