i yell say it is a well thought out of course he was scared he didn't know what would happen. also it was mostly concerned about himself and band result him that he didn't care much about the safety of innocent people a fool but. georgia chose in two thousand and three was covered with roses at first not a single shot was fired during this revolution the young leader came to power back then it seemed the euphoria would never end but put it all into the right perspective georgians practically worship saakashvili in two thousand and three and nine years later the same people took to the streets shouting me shit. happen to these people why did george i wish the west considered him a beacon of democracy in the caucuses turned out to be a very different country why is this energetic young leader hated by the majority

of georgians now how has power changed the young reformers away is georgia headed now. now it's all vias to everybody that this was a scripted revolution that had a clear goal in the organize as you said methods that time it didn't seem to matter in november two thousand and three george it was going through a political spring a great awakening hundreds of thousands of georgians took to the streets really believing that life which. change for the better. the people didn't want to see old

politicians in power they wanted young democrats. really. cool three of them were forced to stick together playing roles of loyalty as. they had to establish this formal union because there was pressure from the people but they didn't really like each other didn't respect each other and knew everything about each other. who basically raised this new generation of politicians gave up his power voluntarily but he warns georgians about possible dangers we shouldn't encourage these guys of their cable bill of anything. remember how he began his political career. he was a young man with a degree in international law from kiev's university of international affairs very friendly. and charming. and later it became obvious that he was

unstable. just wasn't one of his characteristics. is a small country basically everybody knows everybody here knew that. he was from an educated family this is me sent when he was a little. biography skoal a leadership position in colin small university in kiev military service in the soviet border troops but after the fall of the soviet union sec is really got the chance to study abroad he did it with the help of his uncle a u.n. diplomat in ninety ninety five sexually returns to georgia with his dutch wife. his friend. promised him a parliamentary seat as. part of the union of citizen of georgia it is not those of

the south interestingly enough some at monza never talked about the fact that he didn't just start his political career in sarah not as a party but was even the leader of the parliamentary majority at that supported. and when he criticised his government in his public addresses never mentioned the fact that he himself used to be minister of justice and that government. to help his hand asking people to vote for him but i feel. in this hyperactive young minister with his populist ideas george and. even the panthers skin you haven't come down from the trees the. russians still wear shoes. young. very important lesson at that time there are no friends in politics. even his own party members.

will push he wants to be the leader and he will do anything for that position. literally anything. justifies the means. he often says to his close allies know this if i have to i will sacrifice my own mother who raised me by herself and that was true. nobody can stand in my way but if you stand next to me i will never forget it you show anyone who joins my team will be duly rewarded. i'm a very sentimental person sentimental very often when i see sad movies. often cry i'm a very gentle person but i'm forced to fight all the time.

you know what. when he became president in two thousand and four received all the power successfully started with some radical reforms. of the diplomatic academy so so since i was a was an advisor to the president at the time as a true georgian he is sitting at a table talking about those times he says that governing a country is not as easy as making him colleague it takes knowledge and skills whereas really in his team just powered through the load a young team of reformers came up with on realistic projects but they were rookies and they thought the people support us. that we have all the power what else do we need. seconds release first order of business was to file corrupt policeman and hire new

people who had nothing to do with the old system for two months there were no police in georgia. only for the police reform at the mall is small miracle. i remember how cops used to stop my car and ask. would you donate to to the police fund and they had to pay. and then suddenly. we have police. who don't take bribes. form a defense minister and former education minister of georgia dmitri says the georgian police reform was the most successful initiative in all countries georgia was one of the most corrupt countries in the former u.s.s.r. but in nine years. able to get rid of corruption. somehow it was able to get to the

point where you can no longer be stopped by a cop asking for a private we were in this country you can have your passport done in five minutes and you don't need to pay anybody. the georgian army was at an unprecedented rate at the same time the authorities didn't make a sequel to the georgian cannons would a match in case of war. the army reform was based on the idea that russia was our potential enemy. was in armenia and azerbaijan or turkey or russia was a threat for us so preparing for a potential carrillo warfare was among our tasks. the georgian armed forces were formed according to the western image at that time georgia set a world record by increasing its defense budget thirty times. having

secured the us supports the un prison drastically in georgia westwood he was moving towards withdrawing from russia's sphere of influence and integrating into naysay actually georgia had already made such a turn in the course of its history. georgia made its first attempt to withdrawing from russia's sphere of influence and finding a western patron in the early twentieth century after the collapse of the russian empire the mensheviks established the georgian democratic republic that when turkey launched its invasion from the south the georgian authorities also germany to help them soon after that the german expedition we call landed in the port of but to me . at the time europeans viewed the men should make george as a bacon of democracy the best see and of liberalism and social justice according to the second international delegates who would often travel here to enjoy the local wine georgia became a civilized corner of asia. however the admiration of georgia. when it became

a soviet republic in nineteen twenty one. today they're talking about economic and cultural expansion in. some of the to me as areas are taken by talk certainty where they live in. all our major projects such as hotels or a turkish should. other than the economic influence we're also dealing with the demographic presence which is quite noticeable. looks at this matter somewhat differently. in area where it has historical and political influence. it was he. really had one of the first expropriations of the roots. clans property was returned to the state treasury price in that instance the young reform was dead only to seize property from the relatives of the l.c.

shevardnadze his son in law. they are not authorized. the monthly. pensioners and teachers will be covered by this amount that had been transferred by schaeffer nazis daughter from new york. in february two thousand and five the anti corruption struggle receded into the background. georgia was shocked when prime minister. this century the second man in the country died in mysterious circumstances. but. on the show before that that. are trying to monetise their flatulence that's the that's the economic growth in the u.k. they talk about g.d.p. and. annualizing at three percent growth but debts annualizing at nine percent

growth and higher if you put the debts that are off the balance sheet like on the bank of england back into the mix the debts compound a good twenty percent a year or so three percent a year in g.d.p. growth even though it doesn't even discount for the actual inflation number the fact is you can commies in negative territory they're living on carty farts they're living on corny farts here that's their entire economic so-called growth. two years out of the force ouster of khadafi by nato forces would be a stance as the abyss the lack of a strong central government weak rule of law and endless violence in a country awash with weapons has resulted in libya facing a failed state status add to this the presence of islamic militants can things get any worse in libya they're doing whatever they want in syria these days and even the obama administration can do nothing to rein the saudis in and i think the sad

answer is that the united states doesn't have the power that it once had it doesn't have the leverage that it wants tries to work through allies through international organizations and occasionally on a child and deal with the court of public opinion. the best america can but there are there is a lot in the toolbox right now they're not many tools live. you don't know if you don't. disclose the ruse. most everyone in my life that i cared about they're gone and then. i came to skin. i was set national champion in track and field and also was able to go and qualify

for the olympic games. you know one nine hundred eighty eight i started to experiment with other drugs i had lost all the financial means that i. was really on the street. black market brown can. get a great. interest. in . the book. it was a. very hard take i. once again on a plane had never had sex with the perfect hair looks.

the. same plug a. and . police found his friend. in a rented apartment in this building. they died of carbon monoxide poisoning were however they were just scratched and sees in the official version. what did the

fingerprints of the deceased were not discovered in the apartment and you suppose it was missing one shoe the mysterious death of the prime minister's for numerous room is and theories you will get. in the morning the authorities rush to say the prime minister died of carbon monoxide poisoning because of a fold with brady inmate he said. but you know mr shawn has blood showed a mix of hemoglobin and carbon monoxide. will come from throats concentration exceeded forty percent whereas a lethal dose for a human being is twenty percent of the time i am a kindly really was the lead independent forensic scientist in georgia the fact that statements of this kind made prior to the autopsy just boosted doubts. that it wasn't carbon morningside poisoning the question is whether it really did happen in bed strange apartment that what they wanted to make it look like solid evidence but they failed. there were no fingerprints. those people were sitting there eating and

drinking how come they didn't leave any fingerprints anywhere that you could get in there of course it wasn't an accident. it was a planned assassination. now eight years later the circumstances of zero death still remain a mystery for the entire georgian society however that society and the georgian authorities had radically changed by two thousand and five. little why of course it was an eye. slater governing system was began transforming into an autocratic regime and the system decided not to investigate the prime minister's death. we believe it was an assassination it wasn't just a murder it was an abomination. my initial i should really who openly expressed outrage towards the unprofessional investigation into the media personally

experienced a change of atmosphere in the country when i woke up i saw a man standing in the door. she was wearing a black coat and a black mask and she was pointing a machine gun at me and my daughter. was also the first thing i said was please do not scare my child i thought there were some burglars. i said please take all my money but did not kill my child. and then they told me that i was accused of organizing a coup. i burst out with relief and said praise god. my was charged with nothing less than preparing for a coup d'etat in the form of an armed insurgents. it wasn't even funny according to them i was going to bring several hundred people to get over armed them. and then assess the night. force you've caused internal affairs minister bag them. and we know boys are not

and then psych us through it as well when maher admitted her guilt she was sentenced to probation and released from custody but that didn't make her life easier. suddenly i was forced to admit something i wouldn't even dream off in my worst nightmare so it doesn't have been living with it for six years now this is something i cannot tell anyone not even my daughter i couldn't even the calm down my daughter and tell her the truth. i felt like jews in. a concentration camp who had to wear star marks for a recognition. that i felt like i was bearing a mark in my home country which i loved so much. i was not like others i wasn't allowed to do anything i was allowed to stay alive and i was supposed to be thankful for that. but i know i know if. it turns

out however that the police reform had some downsides arrest on charges of espionage will organize a coup were conducted on a large scale politically motivated trials for one another under the pretext of fighting corruption the authorities took away people's businesses the campaign was managed by a record really the president's loyal support. stolen money as you call it how large was the sum returned to the budget. only in the last two months the sum reached about twenty million ten million dollars so the prosecutor comes up to him and says looking good you say you can pay seven million dollars and if you do. you go if you go to prison. back then according to those in the know there were cases of businessmen suddenly waking up in the middle of the night and voluntarily signing their property over to the states or officials loyal to cyprus really. it

was one of those who refused to do that a few years ago he owned a successful business in the oil industry. so our gas was in every gas pump in the country. they took away zones business and arrested his children to hold it over him for persistent noncompliance all was sentenced to sixteen years in prison . i spent four years in prison there were twelve to go. is the head of one of the most reputed opinion poll companies he was the first one to disclose the results showing that in terms of people's true. georgian place was second only to george's paycheck the second. no they don't take bribes anymore but here's the dilemma. wouldn't it be better if the police were corrupt but weren't protecting one single person in office. or is it better for them to be honest but at the same time spare no effort to keep such

a party the united national movement in power personally i would prefer the former . the polls conducted by. research center show that despite george's democratic advances the standards of living in the country is still one of the lowest among the former soviet countries. the only things that about forty nine percent of georgians can afford to buy today are food and clothes. george's economy took a serious hit in two thousand and six the government sent the russian rhetoric this agricultural country its biggest export market the russian one. says my little cellar where i keep my wine right here. is a used to be considered the most successful businessman in georgia nicknamed the

wind when russia imposed the embargo his company lost about eighty percent of its profits. many companies have gone bankrupt and many companies growth was stunted in the former soviet countries brand awareness of our products is high we need to invest ten times more to generate such a levels of print awareness in the united states or europe today. combine to kids who served as a minister of economy under seconds really believes the opposite that the embargo benefited georgia's developed economy as it prompted businessmen to search for new markets. in two thousand. five russia was right georges number one trade partner and now it's in sixth place. and that's only because georgia didn't close its borders for russian goods says that one of. the ordinary georgians who worked in the allies on the valley picking grapes lost their jobs because of the embargo. that was

a tough it was is there of hope for the better with this well if we are able to export to russia again things will get better for sure but a little bit which. israeli was busy terrorizing business and depriving the country of export markets the role of a democrat in the international arena he was putting on a show it was small free country struggling. to show it was

a success that made an impression on the west. when the e.u. official was plain in brussels he knew he was going to a young democracy which naturally would have some problems and who does and. everyone makes mistakes but you know everyone makes mistakes principle has a negative side to it it can become an excuse for anything. george w. bush's visit to georgia in may two thousand and five was the high point of the charade aimed at convincing the audience of the triumph of democracy. then the american president called georgia the beacon of democracy sex really swore allegiance to western values and named the road from the international airport to downtown to see george w. bush the georgian president has always understood what it means to make

a grand gesture. that's how saakashvili operates he was born to work in p.r. and create images that's the way his mind works i can say that because i am one of the few people who knows him very well. it's a color of his tie. to inspect the troops stage performances like when he valiantly drove russian peacekeepers for. he was walking and they were retreating before. of course they were he was the georgian president what were they supposed to do shoot him such things were careful . thinking of. he always considered how his actions would look. for example inviting mccain and giving him a soviet made gun was heavy on symbolism since mccain served in vietnam and

was shot down by soviet pilots. all over the world that's what he was trying to achieve through any means. before really was to visit a georgian town houses had to be painted in a rush and local citizens dressed up the conventions of the ruling party the national movement for an exact replica of the republican conventions in the us. tonight if we succeed this boy with an angel like face will be living in a completely different ga i.

don't. know if everyone in my life that i cared about their own and then. became a skint well. i was sat national champion in track and field and also i was able to go and qualify for the olympic games. you know nine hundred eighty eight i started to experiment with drugs i had lost all the financial means that i had and was really on the street. black market can't. break. free.

i know c.n.n. m s n b c fox news have taken some not slightly but the fact is i admire their commitment to cover all sides of the story just in case one of them happens to be accurate. that was funny but it's close enough of the truth and might think. it's because one full attention in the mainstream media works side by side the joke is actually on here. at our teen years we have a different thread. oh yeah because the news of the world just is not this funny i'm not laughing dammit i'm not how. you guys talk to the jokes will handle the serious stuff that i've.

approximately sixty percent of imports came from a legal fishing. the european union is ironically taking fish from some of the poorest nations on earth so this is a very serious and very urgent problem that needs immediate international action. to ensure territorial waters they fish they load this fish into the ships and leave it. to do illegal fishing just taking the bread out of our mouths. or the outside to an octave camp walked on a road where patients are more svetlana's out or a mouth full of our strike never turned world's attention to the place that
