**US Embassy’s Baffling Statement Raises Eyebrows in Georgia**
In a surprising move, the US Embassy in Georgia has released a statement that seems to be out of sync with President Trump’s congratulatory letter to Georgian President Mikheil Kavelashvili. The embassy’s Facebook post mentioned that Bidzina Ivanishvili, honorary chairman of “Georgian Dream,” refused to meet with US Ambassador to Georgia Robin Dunnigan.
This development has left many puzzled, including Parliament Speaker Shalva Papuashvili. According to him, the purpose of this statement is unclear and seems to be unrelated to President Trump’s congratulatory letter. “It’s about an event from a few days ago,” Papuashvili said, “yet they specifically released this statement the day after Trump’s congratulations. To be honest, I don’t know what the purpose of this statement was.”
**A Signal of Support for Georgia**
Papuashvili sees President Trump’s congratulatory letter as a positive signal for Georgia-US relations. The letter emphasized the desire to cooperate with the Georgian government and strengthen collaboration in various fields, including the economic sphere. This aligns fully with Georgia’s vision, starting with President Trump’s aim to defeat the “deep state” in the US.
“We are merely his supporters in this,” Papuashvili stated, “and we know that the weakening of the ‘deep state’ will be directly proportional to the improvement of Georgia-US relations.” The Parliament Speaker believes that President Trump’s congratulation to President Kavelashvili on Independence Day is a good signal of this.
**The Embassy’s Statement: A Mystery**
So, what prompted the US Embassy to release this statement? According to Papuashvili, it seems like an unrelated event from a few days ago. The lack of clarity has raised eyebrows in Georgia, and many are left wondering about the true purpose behind the embassy’s post.
