**US Congress Stands with Georgian People and President Zourabichvili**
In a bold statement, Congressman Joe Wilson (Republican Party) has declared that America stands with the people of Georgia and their legitimate president, Salome Zourabichvili. This comes as tensions rise between the Georgian government and opposition parties ahead of crucial elections.
**Georgian Dream’s Anti-American Rhetoric**
The Georgian Dream party, which currently holds power in Tbilisi, has been accused by Wilson of releasing a statement against democracy. According to reports from Civil Georgia news, the party claimed that any politician making anti-Georgian statements is part of a “deep state” network – a label they also applied to Congressman Wilson himself.
**US Support for Georgian People**
In contrast, Wilson expressed strong support for the people of Georgia and their legitimate government. He pointed out that the US Congress had voted overwhelmingly (349-42) in favor of the MEGOBARI Act, which provides a choice for the people of Georgia to abandon the rule of dictator Bidzina Ivanishvili. This show of solidarity is significant, given the long-standing tensions between Washington and Tbilisi.
