U.S. IMPARTED GEORGIA WITH MISSION TO ‘EXPORT’ ‘COLORFUL REVOLUTIONS’

Saakashvili: ‘Aliyev Is No Fanatic. He Won’t Order to Break up Opposition
Rallies, You’ll See’

The US President called Georgia not only “beacon of liberty” in the region,
but also directly hinted at Georgia’s “mission to export colorful
revolutions” to other countries of the region.

George Bush and Mikhail Saakashvili stated about spreading “the rose
revolution” in other parts of the world till in the February of 2004.
According to a press release by the White House after the meeting of George
Bush and Mikheil Saakashvili, Bush said: “The President and I discussed the
opportunities for spreading ‘rose revolution’ in other parts of the world.”

On May 10, the leaders of both countries made the probability to spread the
Georgian scenario in the region and in the world more obvious. One could
have the impression that Bush will try to end the totalitarian regime with
the help of this very scenario.

“Good changes take place from Baghdad to Beirut and Bishkek,” Bush said. He
added that Georgia was the first country in the post-Soviet region where
“the rose revolution” took place.

Bush said that the probable revolution can take place in the region that
stretches from the Black Sea to the Caspian Sea, to the Persian Gulf and
much farther.

Saakashvili, encouraged by the words of Bush, even named a certain state,
Byelorussia, where the revolution should take place. “I’d like to say
something. We all are responsible for spreading democracy in the world,
beginning from Byelorussia, where the people deserve freedom. We stand by
the Ukrainian people and we will be by the side of all the nations beginning
from the North Korea and Cuba. This is our suggestion to you, Mr.
President,” Saakashvili said his speech.

Georgian President made obvious incorrect statements not only about
Byelorussia but also about his direct neighbors. Mediamax informed that
Saakashvili said in the interview to Le Mond that “Ilham Aliyev realizes the
importance of making reforms in his country. Ilham Aliyev is no fanatic. You
will see, he will not order to break up the opposition rally any more, as he
did two years ago.”

Today, the world press tries to find out in which country the next
“colorful” revolution will take place. Such publications exert obvious
psychological and political pressure over these countries. When “the rose
revolution” took place, they were speaking about Ukraine. Afterwards, they
began speaking about “the tulips” in Kyrgyzstan. Kyrgyzstan, the Middle East
oasis of democracy received blood, violence and robbery together with “the
tulips.”

Is it now Aliyev’s turn, as parliamentary elections are envisaged to take
place in Azerbaijan in 2005? Anyway, they speak more about Azerbaijan in
Georgia. The Georgian press states that the young opposition members
supported the Azeri young men in learning how to seize the power.

It’s not important where the next revolution will take place. But it is
obvious that the US is quite certain about the territory of CIS. Besides,
the American are carrying out democratic “bloodless” revolutions, as they
say, in the Middle and Near East countries. We got the impression after the
speech of Bush that he gave Saakashvili a serious part in carrying out that
mission.
