12:35 am
trip there was no way out there was no possibility to leave the square. as we understand special forces received special instructions to arrest all demonstrations and then nine hundred demonstrators have. being arrested that night to beat people brutally especially in the hands heads and many people received serious injuries and were transported to the hospitals and they had to special instruction and not to allow me the leaders of the national assembly to leave. place. so. it was a real punishment to the people and it's not an accidental when one of the main supporters of the war is this mr bender kids whose quality world knowledge even in . the places said that it was a kid is that the government used to such a brutal force against the demonstrations tomorrow as they will think twice until
12:36 am
they will participate in any demonstrations so one person our supporters who died despite the fact that the government was broadcasting king t.v. that he died because of car accident which thanks to my cars which is not serious fortunately there were footage which shows that this person had been beaten until death by ten fifteen special forces representatives and you can see these video footage on you tube and on our website following the clampdown many people were arrested a lot of your supporters in fact have gone missing so do you have any information on their current whereabouts do you know anything about them right now about two hundred seventy eight people are rest most of these people have been arrested not only twenty six in the morning but afterwards and all they have. to call the
12:37 am
resistance against police results any evidence is real evidence is from the side of the government of course sure that these people are political prisoners. it will appeal to the strasburg court concerning all these cases what has to change in georgian politics for the country to move forward to step away from its i would say post soviet. style and move forward towards westernized country or to prosper you know i will not say right now that george is opposed to country it was in two thousand and three into selves and forward to selves and five until two thousand and late two thousand and eight even despite of the war right now it's a typical soviet style country it's enjoyed you're right now it's a real bullshit. with all signs of soviet
12:38 am
regime violation of elementary constitutional norms. while ation of elementary human rights control of media. police. just doing everything despite of legal obligations if it's coming from from the political decisions towards a typical soviet country where every person who is against the regime is the enemy of the country i remember in soviet time even when i was small. not afterwards during that period but before and i read it in the books but every person who was criticizing soviet regime was. supporters or. secret agent of imperioli right now in georgia is the same you can change the words imperialism always russia and every person who is criticizing saakashvili and who is against his regime all of the just beginning for me it's
12:39 am
a very serious place we russia friendly we are just trade days we are enemies of the people everything the same. you can't imagine that as it was in former soviet you. enjoyed your people right now not everybody of course for. many people are afraid even to call to your place to ask you how are you say afraid to come to the funerals if. it's family also people who are not just agree with this regime and if you have a different point of view if you are supporters of a position if you have huge reach very high risk to lose their job to find find in your pocket drugs all gone and you have a high risk to be really just outside there of not only political but real life.
12:40 am
so this is a typical soviet country modernized i call it modernized soviet union no bullshit which is the ruling right now in my country the perception of the united states officials changed all of the president saakashvili has the support windowed would you say and yes without any doubt saakashvili has right now and his regime less personal supports and it was before during president. bush's presidency but you know the problem is that united states is too big and they have too many problems and the georgia is not priority number one so that is why quite often i have a feeling that not indeed tales are high officials in the united states know what reality going on in georgia from another side the way our state department's conclusions in two thousand and nine two thousand and ten where they were speaking about their lead corruption or where they were staying and speaking about selective
12:41 am
justice but i think that. nevertheless even as this support which that gosh really had right now has right now this is a mistake from the side of united. states because this kind of support in many georgians creating a lot of questions people don't understand why one of the most democratic country in the world continued to support. even less but now as though it's the regime which is absolutely and the more critical of the georgian president has been seen as a sort of freedom poster boy by a lot of people in the west not just the united states but in europe as well so right now is your staying here in brussels and meeting with people do you find it difficult to change that mindset that perception of the georgian president you know mainly the. international community is a no real face of that country quite well of course the diplomacy means that they
12:42 am
will never say it in public but you can compare our position of these people before two thousand and seven before their selves and eight before even twenty six of may and right now but of course you need time you need time. to. hold a real. really real face of georgian democracy question. lots of community per year to. a little beast and a p.r. company. but nevertheless you can see quite critical articles and send him to so you can buy many things. money which is really spending for p.r. and loves companies but you can't buy everything and everyone you can to lie for a short time to ruin but you can't lie to everybody so it's meant to have time
12:43 am
but of course we need to work very seriously and that is why i am here what has for you personally changed since you left the georgian government and switched over to the opposition side you know my life in the government was not confident. because i had lots of problems with governmental the team. it was very difficult to be responsible for the many decisions which was not supported in the close circle from my side but i am a person who is playing accordion groups is that i was a part of the team quite often i was taking responsibility for the decisions which . was decided despite my protest and despite of my. decisions but i was a part of the team when i saw that. i don't want to continue like that i don't want to be responsible in front of my people for what i think is not right but never
12:44 am
still it. was done by the government i decided to leave you know personally of course being the speaker of the parliament more confortable you have security you have a lot of people around the you have just as there are a lot of people around who are trying just to say at least hello to you right now of course many things have been changed even for my friends let's say trying to avoid to see your speak with you or sometimes just making just. doing in this case that they didn't see you in just the public places and of course it's a personally not not comfortable. to be leader of a position party enjoyed a really difficult because there you are responsible and in front of the people who trust to you. and you can't protect these people even when you know that these
12:45 am
people are absolutely innocent and right and of course the emotional leaves are very difficult i remember. i can tell you is that even more difficult for me was twenty six days. and twenty seven says that and that night until i received any information that some people had been died when i was under attack. the side of special forces more difficult was the second said day when i was receiving every minute in my phone information that this person had been arrested that person had been arrested this person just we don't know where he's and you have your constable and his thing absolutely to protect these people. in any case you can just don't think you'll have to continue to fight we're wishing you the best in all of your endeavors thank you very much for coming in talking to us again thank you.
