The influx of Russians remains a significant problem for Georgia, said the representative of the Unified National Movement party, Nona Mamulashvili.
A survey of Georgian citizens showed that almost 70% of respondents are concerned about the mass arrival of Russians into the country and fear the negative consequences of this.
“taking into account what is happening in Georgia, and what shameful policy our government pursues, I think that this does not even fully shows the picture that we have now. I think that for a country that has such The great danger, like Russia, to have Russian citizens in such an amount on their territory is dangerous for the safety of Georgia, ”said Mamulashvili.
She noted that the Russians running from the war to Georgia are Oxymoron: “The country occupied 20% of our territory, and these people come to us as refugees. I have not seen such a phenomenon in my life in any country. And again -A. A lot of people who escaped from sanctions and mobilization, of course, were the first to come to Georgia because we have a border with this country, ”said Mamulashvili.
According to her, 1.3 million people from Russia and about 300 thousand people crossed the Georgian border. Of these, they remained in the country: “300 thousand – this is about 8%. Even during the Soviet Union there was no one in Georgia,” she said. According to Mamulashvili, the Russians who remained in Georgia do not feel any responsibility for the actions and politics of the Russian authorities.
