"This is CNN, not TV Pirveli or the Mtavari Channel" - the chairman of "Georgian Dream" Irakli Kobakhidze speaks about this and accuses the influential American media outlet, CNN, of spreading "fake" information. Kobakhidze also cited statistics on TV Imedi and said that there is no increase in exports from Georgia to Russia - according to him, this proves that "a simple lie was broadcast on CNN".
The chairman of "Dream" thus responded to the question posed by CNN journalist to Ursula von der Leyen regarding the effectiveness of the sanctions imposed against Russia, at which time the journalist said that information is being spread about their evasion through Georgia .
There is a global war party that has an interest in involving Georgia in the ongoing war in Ukraine. And they try in different ways and with different methods. One of the recent cases was yesterday, if I'm not mistaken, on CNN involving Ursula von der Leyen, the head of the European Commission, where a CNN journalist based on a "fake" article asks Ursula von der Leyen a question based on what appears to be fact about, that Georgia is one of the main contributors to the flow of sanctioned products into Russia.
This is CNN, not TV Pirveli or the Mtavari Channel, pocket televisions of the National Movement, right? When a lie of this magnitude is broadcast on CNN, it indicates that there is some serious power that has an interest in creating artificial problems for Georgia. The purpose of this artificially creating problems can be one - escalation, and in the end, the end result of this escalation must be, of course, the second front...
...a simple lie was broadcast yesterday on CNN, - says Kobakhidze.
