Georgian Police Arrests Protest Leaders, Raids NGOs for Explosives and Molotov Cocktails โ€“ PM Kobakhidze Rejects Blinken Criticism, Will Wait for Trump To Improve Relations


Georgian capital Tbilisi is having a calm night after police arrested some of the protestโ€™s leaders, and raided NGOs offices to seize explosives, gas masks, Molotov cocktails and other materials.

Georgiaโ€™s prime minister has vowed today (5) to โ€˜eradicateโ€™ the countryโ€™s โ€˜liberal-fascistโ€™ opposition that is violently protesting, and trying to wage a Color Revolution in the country.

Tbilisi has been a stage for unrest ever since the Georgian Dream party obtained a sweeping victory in the last election.

Following the start of protests, the government suspended EU membership talks until 2028, leading to a fresh wave of demonstrations.

Watch: police arrests leader of the opposition party Coalition for Change, Nika Gvaramia.

France24 reported:

โ€œPrime Minister Irakli Kobakhidze has refused to back down in the face of international condemnation, instead escalating a feud with pro-EU opposition groups that are demanding a rerun of the elections.

โ€˜We will do everything necessary to completely eradicate liberal fascism in Georgiaโ€™, he told reporters Thursday. โ€˜This process has already begun. These recent developments mark the start of the end of liberal fascism in Georgiaโ€™, he said, using language reminiscent of that used by the Kremlin in Russia to target its political opponents.โ€

Watch: police raided NGOs and opposition party offices and found their preparations for violence.

The PM called on parents to protect their children from โ€˜the influence of liberal fascist hubsโ€™.

โ€œAround 300 people have been detained and dozens injured, including protestors and police, in clashes outside the parliament building in central Tbilisi over the last week.

On Wednesday, Georgian police arrested seven people for โ€˜organizing and leading group violenceโ€™ and seized crates of fireworks, which have been launched by protestors at riot police.โ€

Watch: The night was calm without masked protestors shooting fireworks at the police!

Opposition leader Nika Gvaramia was detained during a police raid.

US lame duck Secretary of State Antony Blinken denounced Georgiaโ€™s โ€˜forceful crackdownโ€™, threatening additional sanctions against the countryโ€™s leaders.

โ€œKobakhidze on Thursday rejected Blinkenโ€™s statements and said Tbilisi was hoping for better relations with Washington after Donald Trump comes to power in January.โ€

Watch: โ€˜Mostly peacefulโ€™ protests, right?
