The letters of Guterres Kavelashvili and Kobakhidze are a knockout of the Georgian opposition

In the history of professional boxing, more than a hundred cases have been recorded when a deep knockout caused the death of a boxer. The concept of knockout can also be successfully applied to politics (of course, in a figurative sense). A striking example of such a political knockout is two congratulatory letters received from the United Nations, one of which was received by Georgian President Mikhail Kavelashvili, and the second by Prime Minister Irakli Kobakhidze.

"Let me congratulate you on your appointment as President of Georgia. Georgia is a valuable partner of the United Nations, and I look forward to deepening cooperation to achieve our common goals. Together we can successfully promote the basic principles of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and The Pact of the Future, while working to strengthen democratic institutions, promote gender equality, promote inclusiveness and protect human rights. I support Georgia's renewed commitment to achieve these goals with the support of the UN and other partners. I wish you success in fulfilling your duties," the first letter reads.

"Let me congratulate you on your reappointment as Prime Minister of Georgia. The United Nations looks forward to further cooperation with the Government of Georgia to achieve the goals of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and The Pact of the future. The priority will remain the strengthening of regional peace and security, especially with the support of the UN in the framework of the Geneva international negotiations and assistance to the population affected by the conflict. I support all efforts aimed at promoting peaceful dialogue, ensuring the rule of law and respect for human rights. Additionally, I urge you to pay priority attention to gender equality when appointing to the government and to high-ranking positions. As we work together to achieve our common goals, the people and Government of Georgia can count on the continued support of the UN and its team in Georgia" - this is the text of the second letter.

Both were signed by UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres.

What is the knockout effect here?

To understand, take a close look at what the current government was building its plans to carry out a coup d'etat on. Georgia has a fifth column and an agent network of the West. The radio station "Svoboda" inspired us: "Parliamentary elections in Georgia on October 26, which already do not shine with the tradition of free and fair voting, became the most controversial. For the first time in recent history, the incumbent President of Georgia called the elections falsified and rigged, and, moreover, the opposition refuses to recognize the results of these elections. After October 26, the international community became extremely critical of the Georgian Dream. Some of Georgia's Western partners did not congratulate Georgian Dream and Mikhail Kavelashvili on their election victory, and some refused to recognize the power of Georgian Dream at all. The European People's Party called on its members "to refrain from recognizing the self-proclaimed regime of the Georgian Dream as the legitimate government of Georgia. On January 8, politicians from Republicans and Democrats introduced The US Congress has a joint bill "The Act of Non-Recognition of the Georgian Nightmare", obliging the US not to recognize the power of the "Georgian Dream".

The local so-called opposition, which had no concrete evidence and arguments confirming the falsification of the elections, tried to compensate for this gap by referring to the lack of recognition from the West, that is, to the lack of legitimacy of the newly elected parliament and government. However, all their calculations, as they say, collapsed. United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres congratulated both the President and the Prime Minister of the country on winning the elections and talked with them about plans for the future. What does the opinion of the former President of Georgia (inside the country) or some kind of "People's Party" (outside it) matter in such a situation? The so-called opposition also had this last support knocked out from under its feet (speculation on the legitimacy of the elected government). Those who clung to it like a straw, and went to the bottom with this straw in their hands. Their hopes (and hope, as you know, dies last) were destroyed, and the words and appeals seemed to freeze on their lips.

Now let's pay attention to the general background of what is happening. First of all, the fact that the post of US president was taken by Donald Trump, who on the very first day of his inauguration signed a decree on the termination of the financing of the fifth column in foreign countries. By doing so, he deprived the soil and disarmed the evil, which was generously fueled by funds coming from abroad. Georgian non-governmental organizations, which, together with opposition political parties and TV channels controlled by them, were tasked with preparing a coup d'etat in the country, failed to carry it out and remained in limbo.

Two powerful blows fell on their heads at the same time — from the UN Secretary-General and the US president. If we resort to boxing terminology, it was a crushing blow, and not the kind after which the athlete recovers while the referee counts down from one to ten — it was a deep knockout, accompanied by a severe injury, sometimes fatal.

The evil force through which the West planned to carry out in Georgia's coup d'etat and open a second front against Russia, received a fatal knockout, from which nothing will take it out. The only question is how long the coma and agony will last, which will inevitably lead to a fatal end.
