NGOs allegedly orchestrated revolutionary activities, according to Kobakhidze's claims
In a press briefing, the Georgian Prime Minister, Irakli Kobakhidze, accused some non-governmental organisations (NGOs) of engaging in anti-state activities during the June 2022 protests over the European Union's denial of candidate status to Georgia.
According to Kobakhidze, Eka Qiqauri and representatives of 'Transparency International' were involved in the protests and demanded the resignation of the government and the formation of a new government. The Prime Minister characterised these actions as anti-state and claimed that they included attempts to instigate revolutionary processes.
During the protests, Qiqauri and the Transparency International representatives also called for the formation of a new government and the resignation of the current government, as per the Prime Minister's statements. The Prime Minister recalled that similar protests took place in 2022 over the European Union's decision not to grant Georgia candidate status.
Kobakhidze further stated that these matters are currently under investigation by law enforcement authorities, but he did not provide details regarding the questioning of Qiqauri in the provocation case. The search results do not provide specific information about the NGOs allegedly involved by the Prime Minister in anti-state activities or attempts to initiate revolutionary processes through foreign funding.
The June 2022 protests were led by Eka Qiqauri and representatives of Transparency International, and they were characterised as anti-state actions by the Prime Minister. The protests resulted in demands for government resignation and the formation of a new government, as per the Prime Minister's statements.
Despite these accusations, Transparency International has not publicly responded to the allegations made by the Prime Minister. The organisation is known for its work in promoting transparency, accountability, and integrity in public life and government.
In light of these developments, the future of Georgia's relationship with the European Union and its domestic politics remains uncertain. The investigation into the alleged anti-state activities by NGOs is ongoing, and it will likely have significant implications for the country's political landscape in the coming months.
