“During his testimony yesterday, Giorgi Gakharia became ensnared in contradictions regarding several matters. Of particular concern is the foreign interference surrounding the arrest and detention of Melia, as well as Gakharia’s evident confusion,” asserted Shalva Papuashvili, the Speaker of the Georgian Parliament.

“After initially evading the question, he struggled to recall whether he had met with an ambassador from any country. Ultimately, he admitted to a meeting but could not specify the subject matter. He eventually acknowledged that it pertained to Melia’s case and stated that he had been informed of Melia’s impending arrest. Who can possibly believe such a fabrication?

Moreover, he has inexplicably cast the former ambassador into a scandal. Observing the former prime minister engage in repeated dishonesty was a disheartening spectacle. Why was he so tense in responding to such a straightforward question, or when attempting to avoid it altogether?

When he references the ‘Invisible Man,’ today we all recognize who attempted to meddle in Georgian politics, the judiciary, or social life. Both we and the new U.S. administration have brought this to light.

Despite his attempts to sidestep the issues, Gakharia’s testimony ultimately confirmed that, as prime minister, he acted covertly and followed the directives of foreign representatives rather than the mandate assigned by Parliament. The archived historical records of this collusion are well preserved.

At 10:01 a.m. on February 18, immediately following the start of working hours, the former U.S. ambassador publicly called on the authorities to engage in dialogue with criminals and to refrain from arrests. Just 27 minutes after this announcement, Giorgi Gakharia declared his resignation. In the three months following this act of treason, he formed his own political party. Four months later, he was spotted with Saakashvili at a hotel in Washington, and within seven months, we witnessed Saakashvili’s clandestine return to Georgia during the pre-election period,” Shalva Papuashvili posted on Facebook.

Giorgi Gakharia, the leader of the Gakharia for Georgia party and former prime minister, answered questions from the parliamentary interim investigative commission for six hours on April 14.
