THE GEORGIAN CHORUS.
THE GEORGIAN CHORUS.
On parliamentary elections of Georgia the majority has received
The Ruling union headed by president Edward Shevardnadze
Citizens of Georgia. Nevertheless representatives of opposition namereny
To participate in the second round of elections, and their leader, the chairman
The Supreme body Adzharii Aslan Abashidze, expects to replace
SHevardnadze on a post of the president of the country.
Basically at Abashidze there are real chances to occupy
Presidential armchair. First, despite the parliamentary
The majority, the Ruling union of citizens and personally the mister
SHevardnadze in Georgia many are dissatisfied. Today in Georgia
Average pension ten times below a living wage,
Level of an increase in population below one percent, quantity
Registered jobless - there is more than half
Able-bodied population. The United Nations Organization
Has switched on Georgia in the list of the countries of food risk. At
It at Georgia rich potential. And an exit from crisis - business
Quite possible. A good source of the income can become
Transportation of the Azerbaijan and Kazakhstan oil, and also
Turkmen gas on the world markets through territory of Georgia.
There is a remarkable example of the Baltic States which form
From 25 to 50 percent of the budget at the expense of service
Goods traffics from Russia. On one only to transfer Russian
Oil they earn to 15 dollars from ton (15-20 percent
From the cost price). Georgia could earn not worse.
However many are afraid, that if SHevardnadze remains at
The authorities, it will not occur. He spends last time
To the politician westernized, in a pointed manner independent of Russia.
As of today such projects with participation of Georgia,
As "TRASEKA" (transportation of the Caspian oil),
Reforming of armed forces, privatisation of the enterprises
Power and the industry, from blessing SHevardnadze
Are carried out without participation of Russia on means of the international
Financial institutions (VB, the IMF, the European Reconstruction and Development Bank), and also are financed
From budgets of the USA and some other West European countries.
However, despite all diligence SHevardnadze to involve in
The Georgian industry of the western investors, western
The capital does not go to Georgia. According to the Ministry of Finance of the USA, the only thing
The real applicant for purchase and investment of the cores
Industrial targets of Georgia the Russian capital is,
As production made here of other commodity markets,
Except Russian, has no and will not have. Most
Such enterprises, as combine are attractive to investors
The "nitrogen", one of the largest in Europe copper mine, manganous
Combine, Chiatursky manganous mine, vinodelcheskie
Factories. Here, perhaps, and all.
In a question of settlement of the Georgian-Abkhazian conflict and
jugoosetinskoj problems an operating management of Georgia too
Is guided by the West, pursuing a policy of replacement of Russia from
The Transcaucasian region. In one of performances the speaker
Parliament Zurab Zhvanija has directly declared, that "it is necessary to all
To unite and joint efforts to kick Russia out with
Caucasus, and to the released caucasus the West will come with
Pleasure ".
To restriction of the Russian presence at region are subordinated
The steps undertaken by a management of republic in the decision
The most serious for Georgia problems - maintenance
Territorial integrity. Abkhazia, Adzharija, South Ossetia,
Areas of compact residing of the Chechen and Armenian diasporas
Are territories, on which influence of the central power
Minimum. The heaviest situation skladjvaetsja in a zone
The Georgian-Abkhazian conflict. As independently Georgia
This problem cannot solve, last years behind order there
Peace-making mission of Russia on caucasus watched. However
Official Tbilisi has decided, that there has come the moment to involve
Armed forces of NATO for peace-making functions in a zone
The Georgian-Abkhazian conflict. On available data,
The arrangement on the decision of the Abkhazian problem on "to the Bosnian
To variant "between the government of Georgia and NATO it is already reached.
Anyway, SHevardnadze has frankly declared in one of
The performances, that if in the near future the Abkhazian
The conflict will not be settled, a management of Georgia
"It will be compelled to raise the question even more essentially about
Realisation in Abkhazia peace-making operation on
"To the Bosnian format". For this purpose, by the way, it is necessary a little.
Tbilisi is enough to make an attempt decisions of a problem with
The help of military force. Immediately there will be a mass inflow on
Territory of Abkhazia of insurgents from North Caucasian republics, not
Time declaring the readiness to render the military help
Abkhazia. And here - receive. There is a question on inability
Russia to spend peace-making mission on caucasus and about introduction
In a zone of the conflict of the armed contingent North Atlantic
Alliance.
Let's notice also, that a management of Georgia with the assistance of military men
Advisers of the western countries now spends
Actions for reforming of the armed forces. The purpose -
Reduction national VS in conformity with NATO standards.
At the first stage of reforms it is planned to change management structure
Parts and divisions of the Georgian army and to prepare
Necessary quantity of military experts in the western military men
Educational institutions.
About the reasons of westernized orientation SHevardnadze goes much
Conversations. On operative data of Russian special services,
For example, Austrian firm ABV, which in territory of the were
The USSR it is constructed six high quality hotels (in particular,
"Oriental carpet-hotel" and "Marco Polo Presnja" in Moscow), under the pretext of
Profit distributions are financed by a clan of the president fuzii.
Ill-wishers of the president also assert, that a clan
SHevardnadze tries to take root into sphere of transit of oil and gas
From Kazakhstan, Turkmenia and Azerbaijan through fuziju. Opposition
Also accuses SHevardnadze that it made active
Contacts to the Chechen separatists which search dialogue with
Heads of the Transcaucasian republics for development of the joint
The actions directed on easing of a role of Russia on caucasus.
Now Chechens create joint ventures in set
With Turks in territory fuzii. According to Russian special services,
Contacts of Wahhabites in fuzii are provided with somebody Nuhaev,
The initiator of the Caucasian general market. Since 1985 Nuhaev - one
From leaders of the Chechen grouping in Moscow. In 1995 it
Through N.Lekishvili's large Georgian authority gets acquainted
With family SHevardnadze.
Otavnyj opponent Shevardnadze - head Adzharii Aslan
Abashidze. In parliament it supervises fraction "п пЁпЎя пЄпЇп пҐп п п "
("Revival"). The similar name is carried by the political
The party, which activity is beyond Adzharsky
Autonomies. A line of this party of the left sense - development
Good-neighbourhood with Russia. Representatives of opposition
Believe, that the exit fuzii from sphere of influence of Russia will be
To mean an inevitable partition of republic and gradual
Decline of the Georgian nation.
According to the only thing on Southern caucasus of the centre of democracy
And a regionalism, Abashidze has the greatest chances to become
The new Georgian president. A political situation in fuzii
Now reminds many-voiced Georgian chorus, but there is no unity
In this chorus. Abkhazia, very uneasy is practically lost
Relations with South Ossetia, in some areas does not operate
The constitution.
As to Adzharii, here a little bit other position. On
Today a standard of living in autonomous republic most
High in fuzii, and a rate of unemployment rather low.
Here in time pay salaries to state employees, and elderly
To people - pensions. All it, and also a good-neighbourhood position in
Relations with Russia brings Abashidze the considerable political
Dividends.
