Acting Supreme Court judge Lado Kakabadze reacts to US sanctions against Georgian judges and asks Secretary of State Anthony Blinken: " How long ago did you stop poisoning women and children with chemical weapons in Vietnam?" According to him, in many countries and by many people, the US is perceived as the world's gendarme, which in many cases rigidly dictates the rules of the game to its allies.
"We must bear in mind that this shameful decision was taken by the political establishment, the morality of which is well read in the famous saying of one US president: 'Somoza may be a son of a bitch, but he is our son of a bitch". I am therefore no longer surprised by the support of some US representatives for subjects opposed to a peaceful, independent and stable development of our homeland or judicial system, truth be told. This decision, taken in the "best traditions" of the Cold War, reminds me of the sad reality that in many countries and by many people the United States is perceived as a global gendarme, which in many cases, instead of equal partnership rigidly dictates the rules of the game to its allies. Unfortunately, this attitude towards Georgia has been manifested recently as well, which is disappointing and thought provoking. P.S. Mr. Blinken, how long ago did you stop poisoning women and children with chemical weapons in Vietnam!? I hope you sanction me too!!! - writes Kakabadze.
