i. feel. so sad. six geysers bilateral survival guide. when customers go by you reduce the price. then else well reduce some lower. that's undercutting but what's good for food markets it's not good for the global economy. in case you're new to the game this is how it works not the economy is built around corporate corporations from washington to washington post media the media the. voters elected to businessman to run this country business because. you must it's not business as usual it's business like it's never been done before. today is the ninth anniversary of the beginning of the south the city and war how
9:30 am
would you say the events of that war in the conflicts to you today. first to full i would like to thank you for this opportunity to speak with you or. to express my understanding george and. i would like to mention. even into cells and. i saw deep and serious results could bring forth joy. in. war but unfortunately even the people didn't understand the. member celebration of that week to and i would like to say that right now some people enjoy don't understand reality. as they are living under illusion but i see. these six years war situation concerning territorial integrity and situation concerning called picture solution. worse and worse and
9:31 am
very much disappointed the. dignity used to for solving the problems. many politicians they are closing the reality of the problems unfortunately i would like to mention. this tragic two selves and bring so serious problems for georgia we can't just. create a better possibility for joy would you say the the georgian media provides and balanced coverage of those events no absolutely not. or they need towards. a truly international movement. really. investigate journalistic investigation in the media or even
9:32 am
some test to show pictures. for example and i mentioned. the. problem was that. war. really was a person who is most responsible in these tragic events i was the clear. just. intrigued by media and media representatives and even despite openness to gay shit in a film made by a european union peace prize i took the collaboration despite a top of the things that everybody knows what's really happened. to cities to begin the war the. verdict i'm comfortable enjoy and nobody wants to. see them to say that. about western media do you think their coverage provides
9:33 am
a balanced view on the events of two thousand and viewers in the more. you know view of what's going on because the problem here is the. ease of russia for the ration and right now. everywhere in the world to share everything what russia made and what russia didn't make make the so of course. unfortunately unfortunately the spy told. provocative actions from their side many times actually use the. russian intervention had to place into cells and. russian military bases to enjoy themselves or to. even steal. resist so-called station process. in. georgia which is very painful but nevertheless nobody wants to show
9:34 am
p. . just from two different sides for what was the fall of georgia leadership and what russia made and how russia used. tapes made from outside of south of course. very comfortable for a western politicians and for western media to be used. to show. only negative. light. reports by a swiss diplomat. she says the president president mikheil saakashvili started the conflict used against civilians forbidden weapons including cluster munitions during his bombing of the inquiry why hasn't he been prosecuted you know i think it was a political decision for
9:35 am
a georgian government and not only georgian government but from the side of some forces in the west especially in the united states who supported maybe. into cells and the and even more sometimes i have a feeling that despite of official position of the united states officials there were some a very strong force. may be just trying to force. me to begin they swore in two thousand and eight you remember that it was the pre-election period in the united states and it was a very useful for some. aggressive forces in the us to use a given to russian. t.v. . from another side of course i had the feeling and i had the big hole into cells and twelve when georgian dream came in. to the problem where they'd say well you
9:36 am
know it's. only two thousand eight hours. of president bush really and his team and they will prosecute here. but it would be here it might be a very serious step even for solution of relations between georgia and center says she and. i saw that nobody wants a restoration of justice nobody wants to hold hands the files of which will show what he was doing during his presidency in the reality may be some kind of pressure from the side. united states yes it was some pressure but i am sure that having it really mr geisha having this serious investigation. what might it give us a possibility even put georgia and dream to show everything to the west western
9:37 am
representative center say that you should not take this a person who is doing things like a. circus reduce potential return he is now being shrewd of his ukrainian citizenship. you think what you think rather caused. from greece and church or the short period of time by the way he is really uncomfortable for the leaders in ukraine because the country is really corrupted country is really in trouble. in the position and being in a position of course. quite strong so i think that he created some kind of structure for today's ukrainian leadership or maybe to receive some kind of instructions because sure that he's a part of. part of some kind of the program. should be done in ukraine and so he's continuing everything the same what he was doing in
9:38 am
georgia and of course he could be. he used. force this approach because they given want to. use ukraine to russia. in the world political game immediately when southwest really. lost the citizenship of ukraine he was in c. and then and b.b.c. and international media. all these interviews the people begin from the words the biggest fighter and gave begins the biggest fight against russia do you think this is. the time of the. to shift the responsibility for what. you know nobody nobody is sure that it's a possibility. after august third to cells and date because it was
9:39 am
a general said nobody's responsible and no but the just. paid a price for just. beginning war nobody paid a price that people were. on time nobody paid a price is. for example depart for joy was. the government took four seats left with even one. shooting and so on and so there was no investigation. but the responding for what happened was and from the side of georgian politically. the georgian dream when they came to the top of her relations with russia. and think. nothing serious yes the rest. just.
9:40 am
agree culture products but this is not important what is important to have. real serious political dialogue this is very important and if you remember president putin suggested. he's ready to meet high level georgian officials president or prime minister and the answer was absolutely. from the president was i will ask my western colleagues and then i decided to meet this is a tragedy for. this means the. independent if your president your prime minister asking. for us and the city to me to put how can we speak about some serious dialogue between this country. i can really enjoy dreams as a last let's say five golden years for solving the many problems which exist in front of the door in front of my country and. really lose this
9:41 am
possibility to speak with russian president they didn't use that you know two years of georgia that have independently been building their own states their own nations for the past nine years arguably much longer how do you begin to fix the situation how do you begin to deescalate and as you say unify you know first of all i would like to stress it very seriously that georgian and georgian us a chance we have a centuries of. history of friendship and. i'm sure that this century. but what is very important important we should not forget that pain right now is east after the strategy.
9:42 am
or said. this pain is very strong but the we have. begin to speak with these people we have to rebuild that these. many centuries and we should we have to ensure that this is being given part of united georgia will be much more safe and more comfortable for them to be just separated from the rest and particle flow in georgia and these people should have absolutely one hundred percent insurance that would be in the future will be peace and see what saakashvili. well what happened. this is very important of course i know it's naive and i understand that it will be quite difficult they need a lot of time and by that i'm sure they will from one side will begin a direct dialogue with. will find this solution in
9:43 am
relations with russia. could be possible but the problem is just the georgian government is losing time and. the time is not working. for georgia and the situation when we are not to use the exit possibility to have direct dialogue which russia. creating more and more problems on the way of unification and this is a problem. we all willingly accepted the real sick of being shot wounded taken prisoner. and buyer. for biological and chemical products said not truck tires all types of styrofoam polish. trucks there was a complete denial i think it all levels of government that there was any connection
9:44 am
between here and what these brave soldiers were suffering from to. and save every soldier marine airman and sailor that was on the ground that are complaining about illnesses from exposure from the berm pits would really literally send a v.a. broke and they don't want to pay it so the way to the decades a lot of those soldiers will die in time and they won't have to pay. to get the middle finger of their views to model is. delayed in the. social environment. or with. chemical discoveries over the last so he made every day life easier but at what cost this is syria is exceptionally sick. no wonder it's confidential. says since the years old industrial
9:45 am
giants reap the benefit. by chemical production. you know as if these people are people just experimental animals decades later the toxic environment continues to poison lives and we found these astronomically high levels of backs and levels that my staff think maybe some of the highest levels ever found in the united states for almost thirty years this very serious problem had not actually been addressed what will that investigation into the chemical industry secrets revealed. this despicable. is there any chance possibility the ga would recognize the prize here and south the city as sovereign states. will never recognize. an independent state and i think if any georgian politician will do this.
9:46 am
he will leave there or face very very soon because despite problems despite of the difficulties which exist in georgia and society despite of the fed sometimes there are just. positions and when people are relieved because of for difficult social in the economy if you will look very deeply you will see is that for every joy for everybody our positives house of state here and unification of the country is very important well just before. you. resigned temporarily you put your political career. exactly just before the conflict broke out what is that you know because you know i i saw that really is driving the country in wrong direction after crisis in two thousand and seven and
9:47 am
the second the election itself. she promised to me that he will change his policy he will change his internal and international for this that he will respect democratic values much more then here because he was just relating the verdict in the promise to me that he will the position of russia and the conflict regions and he will begin the negotiation process but i remember quite well and eight when we were very. well what's our country doing what the people around him. were doing and would try and build. they were giving to. these i saw that unfortunately i will have no any kind of. every word serious programs for the country in the future and of course i said truly i say you are just doing what you promised
9:48 am
or i will leave because i don't want to be a part of the process process which is reading my country in absolutely wrong direction and it was a very serious problems because of why i decided to leave well eventually you came back when you founded the democratic movement united georgia party what motivated you to come back only was only war because before war i had a very strong decision made for myself at least a few years i will not. i will continue to be. followed for political life or for georgia and i will try and just i wanted to see what is going to lead me from this side to understand this situation may be more just. from the side but what had happened what happened in two thousand they tend to specially
9:49 am
when i saw that reaction of course celebrating so-called week to reenter selves and they were now so absolutely and their reaction from the side of the political forces unfortunately from the side of a big part of society and the students that i have no right. side i have obligation in front of my people and in front of the event in front of these people who don't understand they send blaming to me as a traitor i have an obligation in front of future generations to do something to change the situation and to survive as the during the last elections you didn't get any seats your party didn't get in sheets well. because really is united national movement almost a third of the seats in parliament why is that the ideas in the belief. really and his party still popular. in some parts of population unfortunately yes
9:50 am
because during the nine years when south australia was in the poll he was able to use the media and using good t.v. . somehow. changed the people's mind in views and it was a very serious. problem during this period but he has fifteen percent of support for the treaty to see the much more more than twenty percent and begin this is because of two reasons one was a reason to give any money surely use the early and his four cease as a main oppositional force and the second was of course very serious process of my mutilation of elections. picking a place it's quite easy to see. the conclusions of. elections just vertically counting process of forces what's bad for every
9:51 am
bed well. recognisable politicians in georgia the presidential election just around the corner in fact the taxi driver the big board here from the airport he said you would have voted for you know a very very big jubilant and running you know first full of yes planning to. planning to. run for presidential elections but you need to depend to a georgian team will do because they're changing the legislation they wanted to change legislation enjoyed to make george absolutely. probably saved. to elect the next president of joy. we direct elections they wanted to eleven georgian president the parliament which. means that somebody will put just any person. and just
9:52 am
bring him in presidential presidential palace and this somebody will be busy they were initially fasting will be changed. position will be strong enough. to allow joy gen dream to make such kind of constitutional changes because it means that georgia will. just state anymore it will be some kind of company which will. eventually. and this is absolutely not excepted but so in any case the ready and continual my applied for. life there will be presidential elections i will participate in this elections that will be next parliamentary elections and we will participate again because despite of her the serious shock let's say after parliamentary elections our party was only one political party in georgia. positional political parties
9:53 am
just keeps the you need. to parliamentary elections results have been ours that we continue our fight for. justice we continue. to protect our. justice system of justice enjoy so i'm just. it was impossible to achieve what you change what school program we've heard about your foreign policy what about your domestic program which would you offer the georgian people you know first to fall of course . foreign policies verdes serious priority for me and the first what i will do i will try to have. president put in to begin very serious negotiation i read negotiation. and
9:54 am
of course one of the. two will be again. my. representatives. and that means that i will recognize them. as there is an independent state but who will find. begin a negotiation process between me and between them and i'm sending domestic policy of course many things have been should be changed first of all sure absolutely sure there was a development of the country it's important to ration of justice process of restoration of justice why not because you know i'm angry. or somebody else and i want to punish them because for them ocracy it's very important. because even as a country the rule of law really exists and the rule of law means that if the president was guilty he should be punished just ordinary citizen was guilty should
9:55 am
be punished and everybody should be equal in front. of the law and even once and forever in georgia will created the situation when you know as a president toys this picture of the problem and it should not do wrongs things as a way. to model is a day after to morrow it will change reality absolutely. to have. results on the corruption it will have serious results on many different. fields. and of course the biggest priority. will be her economy can social situation in that country i want to see georgia as a social country which will give the protection elementary protection to his own citizens and we need to be and we don't want to be dependent really from
9:56 am
the west and how we need to have the worst serious improvement to put chronic situation and investment climate in georgia and we want to really strengthen georgia economy joy our good it culture sector and to give to the people are more possibilities to work because the level of unemployment enjoy here it's really very high is there and shows the jewel in the rules in the introduction or you know. my position is concerning me and my party and senate ga ga's should not be pro western and georgia should not be pro russian georgia should be pro georgia this is simple as. for this it's very important first of all to think about your old national interests you know when we are speaking is it possible for small georgia to play independent role or know. in twenty first
9:57 am
century no but these independent one hundred percent everything in globalization process so linked with each other and you could you can't be independent one hundred percent but you can be independent in these frames which is necessary for survival territorial integrity and democratic process in georgia i think is the biggest mistake of the georgian politician is that georgia decided to be nice things a strong gust of united states that maybe some nato countries this was a very serious mistake when you are in this job. when we are you should not forget that you have a concern or save huge the purple or which has a bird a serious interest and i think that even joy will. respect and will try to take into account russia's.
9:58 am
legal interests i want to stress this word legally interests in this case it will be much more easy to play really independent strolled by the notes to the role of the western or me be more correct to say pro american and not to be pro russian be proud georgian. it's. not my point i wanted to. ask but i. know i lost his boss because. we've. been. showing off as you know you're not. you know just i mean what almost did i'm already but it was sped.
