United Neutral Georgia calls for legal action against UNM supporters
United Neutral Georgia organization has issued a statement calling for legal action against supporters of the United National Movement (UNM) party. The organization argues that while steps are being taken to declare the UNM unconstitutional and bring its leadership to justice, it is equally important to expose and prosecute the party’s voters.
The statement describes the UNM as a “toxic political force” that continues to exist and exert moral and psychological pressure on Georgian society. It claims that the UNM’s presence pollutes and poisons the country’s socio-political landscape.
According to the statement, for 12 years, the government has been forced to manage the country under tough conditions. While focusing on economic growth, poverty reduction, and ensuring the well-being of citizens, it has also had to contend with constant upheavals and neutralize various internal and external political actors.
The organization argues that UNM voters should be held accountable for supporting what they describe as a criminal regime. They draw parallels to the denazification process in post-World War II Germany, suggesting that UNM supporters should face legal consequences for their political choices.
The statement also targets supporters of other opposition figures, such as Giorgi Gakharia and Mamuka Khazaradze, accusing them of backing “foreign agents” who act against Georgia’s interests.
United Neutral Georgia proposes that after the next elections, alongside declaring the UNM unconstitutional and prosecuting its leadership, there should be a process of exposing and trying UNM voters collectively. They argue that this approach would help cleanse the political system and allow for the emergence of a healthier opposition.
The organization concludes by stating that every person who votes for the “collective UNM” bears no less legal, political, and moral responsibility than the party leadership itself. They emphatically declare, “Voting for criminals is a crime.”
