In an interview with globalnews.ge, the former Minister of Foreign Affairs of Georgia, the former Ambassador of Georgia to the USA, and currently a member of the advisory board of the analytical center "Geocase," Tedo Japaridze, says that the main problem of the country's foreign policy is the internal political situation. "Today in Georgia, there is no balance between two definitions of what is called government and power, and the whole process is directed towards power. It is not an expression I invented that one of the main laws of democracy is the attitude towards the opposition. You should look at the opposition as the future government and not as an enemy. If we take into account the Georgian opposition, of course, it would be desirable for them to be aware that they are directed not only to declare a political battle with the opponent, but also that they are business-oriented and focused on the stability and security of the country," says the diplomat. According to his own statement, such "lust for power made the political process impoverished and uncertain." "We are stewing in the endless conflict between these two forces, which, unfortunately, we see is futile and not useful for the country. The situation is black and white, an unacceptable process has been created for democracy. There is one side, there is another, and "the middle is chosen," while this "middle" is the guarantee of the stability of the democratic process. "I dream, and on the way to Europe, it cannot happen otherwise, that there should be a "Georgian dream," that there should be a second force, which is unclear who it is and is disintegrating, but that a third force should also emerge. This will be the sign of Georgian democracy and this is what our European partners are asking us for. Without this, it is impossible to call a country like Georgia democratic. According to him, "the political rhetoric inside the country is unacceptable, black and white colors, rigidity in relations and statements. This is not good for the future of our country, and this is part of the recommendations." The former Minister of Foreign Affairs of Georgia and former Ambassador of Georgia to the United States calls the statements made to the President unacceptable. "We are not talking about a person that you may or may not like; we are talking about a state institution that represents the country and towards which there is a non-European, unacceptable attitude. I can't even find the words to describe it and draw a conclusion," says the diplomat.
