Georgian riot police used pepper spray and water cannons to drive demonstrators away from the presidential palace and detained five activists on Saturday, as the opposition staged a large demonstration on a day of local elections.
“They moved to action, began the overthrow attempt, it failed, and then they started distancing themselves from it,“ Georgian news agency Interpress cited the prime minister.
He accused EU Ambassador Pawe³ Herczynski of meddling in Georgian politics and urged him to condemn the protests.
“In this context, the European Union ambassador to Georgia bears special responsibility. He should come out, distance himself and strictly condemn everything that is happening on the streets of Tbilisi.”
“Recent statements falsely claiming that the EU seeks to destabilize Georgia, drag it into war or impose so-called ‘non-traditional values,‘ constitute a deliberate attempt to mislead the public,“ it said in July.
Georgia's pro-Western opposition has been staging protests since October last year, when GD won a parliamentary election that its critics say was fraudulent. The party has rejected accusations of vote-rigging.
