Disappointment in Saakashvili regime growing, Russian expert says

PanARMENIAN.Net - "The Tbilisi rally proved the strength opposition to the Saakashvili regime. The process which has lasted for two years is conditioned by serious mistakes Saakashvili and his supporters made. The President has solved no task since he came to power," said Alexander Skakov, expert on Transcaucasia at the Russian institute of political studies.



"Georgia has no economy as such. There is no developed industry or agriculture. The problem with Abkhazia and South Ossetia is resolved yet. In this case the situation is even worse than it used to be. The country is on the brink of war. Georgia is the only state where Prime Minister was assassinated. Definitely, disappointment in the Saakashvili regime is growing," he said.



"Revolution will hardly take place in the near future but if Saakashvili keeps on making the same mistakes it will inevitably lead to shift in power," he added.



According to him, Georgia tends to authoritarian regime. "Georgia has advanced in authoritarianism deeper than Azerbaijan and Armenia," Mr Skakov said, Km.ru reports.
