**US Senator’s Visit to Georgia: A Time for Action, Not Meetings**
The visit of US Senator Steve Daines to Georgia has sparked a mix of emotions among the country’s political leaders. Paata Manjgaladze, one of the leaders of “Strategy Aghmashenebeli,” expressed his views on the matter in an interview with PalitraNews.
According to Manjgaladze, the senator’s visit is crucial for Georgia, as he represents the Foreign Relations Committee and the Republican Party. This is significant because it means he is a representative of President Trump’s party. As such, Senator Daines is interested in the developments in Georgia, particularly the deteriorating state of Georgian-American relations.
**A Tragedy Unfolding**
Manjgaladze termed the current situation as a tragedy for Georgia, highlighting that the US, one of the guarantors of its security, has never been at such a low point. This is not just about who meets whom or doesn’t; it’s about ensuring Georgia isn’t harmed by these actions.
**The Regime’s Goals and Opposition’s Response**
Manjgaladze also addressed the issue of opposition politicians being detained, stating that “Georgian Dream’s” goal is to isolate leaders as quickly as possible to clear the way for local elections. The regime aims to suppress dissent and maintain its hold on power.
**Resistance in the Face of Repression**
In response to this repression, Manjgaladze emphasized that the line of strategic confrontation isn’t about bail disputes but about how active one is in resisting and being ready to sacrifice everything for freedom and a better future. The opposition must not assist the regime by participating in local elections or allowing leaders to be isolated quickly.
**The Way Forward**
As Georgia faces this critical moment, the focus should shift from meetings with visiting dignitaries to ensuring that the country isn’t harmed by these events. It’s time for action, not just words, and a concerted effort to protect Georgia’s interests and values.
