Chairman of the Parliamentary Committee on Procedural Issues and Rules said the Prosecutor’s Office was taking “legally very sound steps” to investigate acts of sabotage. His remarks came in response to the freezing of 7 NGOs bank accounts amid the ongoing investigation and confession of the former USAID Administrator Samantha Power, who said that the organisation was spending a huge amount of money in various countries to support desirable governments, remove unacceptable ones.

“Those individuals and forces that orchestrate destructive actions from outside are relentless. They try to justify the destructive activities of these NGOs, but the state will be unwavering. Our country, its Government will be firm against any attempts to act outside the constitution, misinform the public, or engage in violent or coercive actions against society. Of course, all measures will be taken fully in accordance with the law.

What Power admitted is that, for years, millions of USD and significant financial resources were spent by USAID in countries including Ukraine and Moldova to support preferred governments and remove undesired ones.

The Georgian Dream Government aligns closely with the policies outlined by Donald Trump and openly states that these USAID funds were used against democracy, for revolutions and creating chaos. The lack of response or open support from the US administration naturally raises many questions and certain speculations in this regard”, - said David Matikashvili.

As part of an ongoing investigation, the Tbilisi City Court approved the freezing of bank accounts belonging to several local NGOs.
