Levan Khabeishvili: We will face an economic blockade if there are sanctions, if visa liberalization is threatened, if the civilized world rejects us
The lari can become a coupon in a few seconds if the West decides to do so, and we will face an economic blockade if there are sanctions, if visa liberalization is threatened, if the civilized world rejects us. There is only one way to prevent this, - the Chairman of the United National Movement Levan Khabeishvili said at the event held in Batumi - "Yes to Europe, no to the Russian law!"
According to him, the fact that businessmen in Georgia are "silent" is not correct.
"Imagine for a second, the lari can become a coupon in a few seconds if the West, Europe decides to do so, and we will end up in an economic blockade, if there are sanctions, if visa liberalization is threatened, if the civilized world rejects us, our lari will definitely become a coupon. Everything is already expensive, this lari has no price, people have so many problems and Ivanishvili still has a lot of dollars, he is not nervous, he will have somewhere to escape and thinks that he will probably take these suitcases and sorry, but what should people do? Should we make Georgia a Russian province?” said Levan Khabeishvili.
In addition, he spoke about the imprisonment of the third president of Georgia, Mikheil Saakashvili.
As he noted, Mikheil Saakashvili has done a lot for Batumi and the National Movement demands that the government allow the third president to speak to the people.
"From Batumi, I can't help but mention President Mikheil Saakashvili, who did a lot for Batumi, we can't help but touch on his political imprisonment. Let's not touch the resolution that was adopted yesterday, the same problem of visa liberalization, political persecution. We are not asking for anything except one thing, to give Mikheil Saakashvili the right to speak to his people, to speak to you, and let the people decide what kind of country they want, what kind of law they want, what kind of coalition government they want.
Democracy is the rule of the people, and therefore, if Ivanishvili and Kobakhidze are not afraid, it is most important for all political leaders to have equal conditions, and especially for the person who has done so much for this country and I am sure will do a lot more. Georgian people will surely win this battle!" - said Levan Khabeishvili.
