Georgian population thinks change of dictators will lead to no good
"Representatives of the Armenian community of Georgia, who are in Mikhael Saakashvili's team, support the President," leader of the Armenian community of Georgia, chairman of the civil movement of multinational Georgia Arnold Stepanyan told a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter.
"Ordinary people, irrespective of nationality, are disappointed by the Georgian leadership's policy. Some 4 thousand people gathered at Rustaveli Avenue to oppose Saakashvili rather than to support Okruashvili," Stepanyan said adding that the Georgian population thinks change of dictators will lead to no good.
Former Georgian Defense Minister Irakli Okruashvili was detained in Tbilisi yesterday. He is accused under 4 articles of the Georgian Penal Code: extortion, money laundering, abuse of authority and office negligence.
Once being Saakashvili's closest ally, Irakli Okruashvili went into opposition and later accused the President of organizing the murder of well-known businessman Badri Patarkatsishvili.
