Azerbaijani political analyst Tofik Abbasov said that over the past
years Georgian President Mikheil Saakashvili started tightening the
screws on democracy to strengthen his power.
According to Abbasov, Saakashvili has deviated from the obligations
shouldered by him earlier, as well as policy for freedom and democracy
in the country. "Indignation with Saakashvili's policy is mounting not
only among political organizations. The social situation is worsening
in the country, what is used by the authorities' opponents. If
the Georgian opposition forces manage to unite their efforts, the
authorities will have problems," said Abbasov.
The Azerbaijani expert also believes that Saakashvili may share the
same destiny as Ben Ali or Hosni Mubarak. Georgia already has the
experience of holding mass processions, rallies and pickets. And if
Saakashvili relies only on his administration, police and special
task forces, the situation may grow out of control, what will lead
to unpredictable consequences.
"And if majority supports the opposition, Georgia may face the sad
experience of Tunisia and Egypt," Novosti-Azerbaijan quoted Tofik
Abbasov as saying.
