US Is Moving Defunct Georgian Politicians Over To Ukraine

POROSHENKO, UKRAINE’S US-INSTALLED PUPPET PRESIDENT, HAS A NEW ADVISOR: DISCREDITED GEORGIAN POLITICAL WEASEL, TIE-CHEWING MIKHEIL SAAKASHVILI.

Mikheil Saakashvili, of all people, has become a “presidential advisor” to Ukraine’s new president, Petro Poroshenko. The Georgian government is understandably rather upset that Ukraine, a country it sees as a friend, has appointed him to such a key post. Sakkashvili (Georgia’s fugitive former president) is wanted on a multitude of criminal charges.

Georgia’s ex-PM Bidzina Ivanishvili, the man commissioned to cleanse the country of Saakashvili and his gang, has recently described Poroshenko’s decision to appoint a wanted criminal as an advisor as “regrettable.” He might have added that there are also many other former Georgian government members “advising” Poroshenko. So many, in fact, that a disturbing pattern is emerging reminiscent to that of the ex-Nazis who mysteriously appeared as advisors to US-aligned South American dictatorships after World War Two, as well as ex-Nazi top rocket scientists who were imported into the US Government secret weapons division in “Operation Paperclip” in the 1940s.

Amongst the wanted criminals in Ukraine is Zurab Adeishvili, the former Justice Minister, who has no official post in the Ukrainian government but is advising it informally, according to others now working there. Former Georgian healthcare minister Alexander Kvitashvili, a man with a long record of promoting and profiting from institutional corruption, now has the same job in Ukraine, having been granted instant citizenship.

Ex-deputy interior minister Eka Zguladze has also now transferred to the same job in Ukraine, despite having been elected by no one. Gia Getsadze, who was a member of Saakashvili’s administration till mid-2005, is now Ukraine’s Deputy Justice Minister, and three other former Georgian government members work in that ministry. Some members of these people’s families have documented CIA and NGO links, as reported in the international media, as in the case of Kvitashvili’s wife and her long-term CIA contacts. 

Georgia is still trying to get many of these people, Saakashvili included, extradited to face the courts. But Ukraine is refusing to play ball, regardless of the nature of the charges against them. It is beyond coincidence that these criminals are suddenly appearing in, and being protected by, the latest US project, just as they were in Georgia for so long, until they were routed by the electors and escaped the country.

Telling it like it is

Saakashvili still has influential friends in the U.S., like Sen. John McCain and Assistant Secretary of State Victoria Nuland. Of course he does, he knows what he did in Georgia and how many careers would be destroyed if he tells everyone else who told him to do it, and why.

Former head of the CIA, David Petraeus, was even a guest at Saakashvili’s house in New York recently. However, according to a New York Times profile by the Observer’s Jason Horowitz, leaders of the Columbia Law School had concerns about him.

This is why Saakashvili is allowed to make public statements which state openly why he is advising the Poroshenko government. “I will coordinate the arms supply to Kiev” he has stated on the main Ukrainian TV channel. “This is the most important issue today and I will be working on this for the next few days,” he noted.

 

However, as usual his new assignment in Ukraine has to be dressed up for the international audience. Saakashvili was long presented as a pro-Western reformer, and therefore his crimes were regarded as either not existing, because reformers don’t do those sort of things, or necessary for the greater good. Therefore, despite his own insistence that his role is arms-related, Poroshenko maintains that Saakashvili “has great experience which will be used to implement reforms in Ukraine”, without saying what these are.

Ukraine is surrounded by pro-Western countries, ones that can give it plenty of advice, and are doubtless offering it. Of all the advisors it could have chosen, it chooses members of the ousted Georgian criminal regime.

The Saakashvili government had a well-known connection with Ukraine. When the now twice-US-deposed Viktor Yanukovich was fighting a runoff election against one of Saakashvili’s many sexual conquests, Yulia Tymoshenko, it sent hundreds of “election observers” to the country to try and prevent him winning. It was later discovered that they were actually a combination of martial arts practitioners and street thugs, with no political experience. Such is the support Georgia offered friendly Ukraine at that time.

Saakashvili’s work is already proving effective. The wanted criminals acting as advisers are not the only Georgians in Ukraine. Many are there as paid mercenaries, fighting alongside Kiev against Ukrainian citizens because increasing numbers of locals, whether military or civilian, are refusing to do so.

Some of these often ill-advised souls have already paid the ultimate price. One should not forget, of course, that we got to this point as a result of the Maidan Square snipers, many of whom were Georgian, the rest of whom were removed from the country on fake Georgian passports and all of whom were part of the CIA terrorist training programme still being run in Georgia’s infamous Pankisi Gorge.

The official story

Officially, despite his own statements, Saakashvili is the head of an International Advisory Council on Reforms. The former Ukrainian President’s office says that this council will be made up of foreign experts and will work on “the reformation of Ukrainian legislation and increasing the level of international support to Ukraine.”

Saakashvili’s new official job title is meant to once again underscore that he and Poroshenko are pro-Western forces. They are portrayed as being on the side of the people, because it is assumed everyone wants to be an American. The corollary of this is that everyone who disagrees with them must therefore be against the people and liable to be overthrown at any time.

The truth, however, is quite different. Wars are primarily fought on TV, and by US-based English language stations who take the line of the US government. Getting rid of inconvenient people is so much easier when the whole world thinks they are against their own people, as in the cases of Syria’s Assad, Russia’s Putin, and Iran’s Ayatollah.

In reality America and Europe are on the horns of a dilemma in Ukraine, one which spoils, at least for now, the ultimate game of isolating and destabilising the Russian people. They have no trusted people there they can work with, as the new Ukrainian Government is more corrupt than the last one … and has a significant neo Nazi element to boot.

Georgians now despised by their own electors can still be trusted to do the US’s dirty work in another country, with no questions asked, because that is their only way of continuing to exert influence and retaining their fairweather international friends. It also keeps them quiet about what they know. If it can be pretended that the Georgian people long for their return because their replacements aren’t American enough, everything they do in Ukraine can be spun in a positive light.

So what’s next?

Georgia is spending huge amounts on arms and clogging up the ports with illegal arms shipments, usually to US proxy terrorists in the Middle East. In fact, even when Saakashvili was in office a great many of these arms were smuggled to Ukraine. The link man here was Irakli Bartiashvili, the former head of Georgian Intelligence who later became a political foe, and the smuggling was conducted, and still is, via Poti, Georgia port.

Saakashvili developed an ever-increasing portfolio of criminal arms and drug deals (weapons for drug swaps) to pay the bills of the United National Movement. Even Saakashvili’s uncle, Temur Alasania, muscled in on the act, taking a bigger share of the blood money for his services.

Saakashvili can already point to one achievement in this direction. He has ensured that the tycoons of the government have gained certain exemptions from tax investigations and attention to their criminal activities. These include Barvil, a freight forwarding and ship handling company based in West Georgia which has always been a front for the former political elite.

So now we can see exactly what Saakashvili’s “advisory post” is all about. The new Georgian government doesn’t want to be the regional arms and drugs trafficking hub. Ukraine is now set to take over the role, as its government needs US support … and this is what the US wants as well.
