The arrest of Vano Merrabishvili
May 29, 2013 Julia Latynina
The new authorities of Georgia arrested the former head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Georgia Vano Merabishvili. In my opinion, this event is no less important than the victory of the former driver of Charves in the presidential election.
It was Merabishvili that was the executive director of the Georgian police miracle. The miracle, thanks to which the country with the national thieves mentality (a third of thieves in the law to the USSR were from Georgia), where the police traded people, and the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs went to the airport to accompany a thief in law, turned into a country with the lowest crime level in the world, where 93% of the population in 2011 never felt that they were extorting a bribe.
Georgian Ci-Devants corrupt officials and crooks who flourished at Shevardnadze and returned to power as a result of democratic elections in October 2012, could not complain that the police took the right to kill and rob them. Therefore, they accused the new authorities and personally Vano Merabishvili of elite corruption.
In order to somehow discredit a transparent state and police officers who do not take bribes, they claimed that the lower corruption is eradicated, but Merrabishvili is engaged in the construction business, kills people on the streets and takes one Lari from each liter of gasoline sold in Georgia.
Alas, there are no construction business, elite corruption, etc. of the accusations brought by Vano Merabishvili.
One of them generally sounds like a joke and surpasses the Russian prosecutor’s claim to the Russian opposition to Navalny: Vano Mebishvili is accused of specifically confiscated the cottage he liked, for this purpose, he initiated a criminal case against him, transferred the cottage to the property of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and sometimes used it.
The person in question - Zurab Lobzhanidze - under Shevardnadze was the head of the state mining company Madneuli. Immediately after the Revolution of 2003 Lobzhanidze, like many other state-owneds and state stories, fled to Switzerland. Madneuli sold at an open auction. The cottage (like hundreds of others) really confiscated and really transferred (unlike hundreds of others) to the ownership of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
That is, the Minister of Internal Affairs of the Ministry of Internal Affairs is completely seriously accused of the state confiscated the cottage at the thief.
The worst thing in all this is not only that the crime returning to power rolls Georgian reforms on asphalt. The worst thing is that at the pre-election in April, the Georgian Dream collected 70-80% of the votes in the villages that your United Russia.
Ukraine proved that democracy is not a panacea. That as a result of the "Orange Revolution" you can choose a worthless Yushchenko.
The Georgian people proved an even more terrible thing. He proved that successful reforms, a transparent state, the ease of doing business to a lumpenized scoop are not needed. He is still not going to conduct this business. It is enough to come to a candidate with a giant amount of incomprehensible money and promise Lumpen a freebie, and Lumpen will vote with enthusiasm for a freebie. The more crazy the promises will be, the deeper the faith of Lumpen will be.
And to the unconditional adherents of the general vote I have a simple question, both in connection with Georgia and in connection with Venezuela. Guys, you are so insisting that good guys during the elections give power to the bad guys. For what? Then, so that the bad guys will never give her away?
