“The last statement of Kallas and Kos is the first time they called on both sides for restraint. What the hell are both sides? There are peaceful protesters, doing a rally for one year, and there is a minority of the people, who have probably been misled by a certain intelligence operation, and we are exchanging our narrative on what is happening in Georgia?” said Nacho Sánchez Amor, a member of the European Parliament.

According to Sanchez, there are no “both sides” but there is a regime crashing consistently, any kind of criticism in the political opposition and in civil society.

“Very important to have a look at what happened last weekend with the attempt to take over the Presidential Palace. Only a couple of hundred activists follow the indication to approach the presidential palace. The other thousands of people continue the protest, as it has been for almost a year.

A small number of activists. They tried to take over the palace, misled by quite a strange narrative about the police giving to you the key of the presidential palace. And for that reason, this is my personal opinion, this was fabricated by some security services.

If the police wanted to stop 200 activists outside the presidential palace on the square, they could have done it easily, but they needed images of violence. And the images of violence were pushing the metal grid. It’s impossible to take it down by pushing. It is impossible. But the thing is, how the hell were they allowed to approach the gate? Because the police and the Georgian Dream, and the security service needed desperately an image of violence to dismiss and to attack the protest. And they had it. And we have to be clear. Do you know how I realized that they, the Georgian Dream, had the narrative they needed?

Because the last statement of Kallas and Kos is the first time they called on both sides for restraint. What the hell are both sides? There are peaceful protesters, doing a rally for one year, and now there is a minority of people, who have probably been misled by a certain intelligence operation, and we are exchanging our narrative on what is happening in Georgia?

There are no both sides. There is a regime crashing consistently, any kind of criticism in the political opposition and in the civil society and what do we have to do? To act accordingly. I think, with this analysis and to maintain this policy of no contact for the moment at least, and to try to convey to the civil society any help, even if the legal framework is prepared for not being able to receive one single euro,” he said.
