Saakashvili entered Ukrainian politics after his term, tried to reform Ukraine, then was expelled from Ukraine by the old political elites due to his opposition activities after resigning as an advisor to the President of Ukraine and the head of the Odesa Oblast' State Administration, but was returned by the Zelens'kyy government. In Ukraine, he organised the Movement of New Forces party, which is opposed to Poroshenko, and during the 2019 parliamentary and presidential elections in Ukraine, Saakashvili and the Movement of New Forces called for voting for Zelens'kyy and the Servant of the People party. In 2021, Saakashvili returned to Sakartvelo, where he was arrested. Some experts believe that Russia was also involved in Saakashvili's arrest, and in 2022, the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe recognised him as a political prisoner.

With its populist slogans, the party promised voters accession to the EU and rapprochement with the West, while its actions were pro-Russian. Thus, there were protests against this party in 2019 and 2021. You can read more about the deception of the Georgian Dream in the Russian opposition journalism project Prodolzheniye sleduyet follows: video and text.

In 2018, Salome Zurabishvili won the presidential election, running on the Georgian Dream coalition. Although her claims that Sakartvelo was responsible for the 2008 Russian-Georgian war caused controversy, Zurabishvili has never been pro-Russian. This caused a conflict with the Georgian Dream, which in 2022-2023 restricted Zurabishvili's activities (including banning her from visiting Ukraine) and tried to impeach her. However, with the beginning of the Full-scale invasion of Ukraine by Russia and Belarus, Zurabishvili took a clear pro-Ukrainian position, while the Georgian Dream government discredited Ukraine and even tried to accuse her of preparing a coup together with Saakashvili.

And what's going on there now?

This reached its peak in 2023. The Kartveli parliament, where the pro-Russian Georgian Dream and the Russophile People's Power gained a majority, passed a ‘law on foreign agents’ that was exactly like the Russian one. In 2023, Kartvelians began protests. The protests were dispersed by force, but the parliament agreed to reject the law. In 2024, the parliament once again approved the same law, and new protests began, which, however, were also dispersed by force. President Zurabishvili supported all the protests and tried to veto the laws. Former President Mikheil Saakashvili also supported the protests.

And so, on 26 October 2024, regular parliamentary elections were held in Sakartvelo. The opposition parties that did not support the Georgian Dream's course towards Russia united in the Coalition for Change coalition, while the United National Movement party stood separately from this coalition. However, as a result of fraud, the Georgian Dream once again gained an absolute majority. This triggered another round of protests that began on 28 October and continue to this day. On 28 November, the Georgian Dream government announced that it was suspending negotiations on EU membership until 2028. The Georgian Dream Government is still trying to discredit Ukraine, for example, on 30 November, Prime Minister Irakli Kobakhidze stated that ‘Everyone was once again convinced that ‘National Maidan’ will not take place in Georgia. For the third year already, specific European politicians and bureaucrats, who failed to achieve the Ukrainianisation of Georgia, are constantly trying to use the status of the candidate and the issue of opening negotiations to weaken the country, so-called provoke polarisation and artificially depopulate society.’.

On 14 December, presidential elections are due to take place, and the Georgian Dream has already nominated Russian footballer of Georgian origin Mikheil Kavelashvili as a candidate.

President Zurabishvili said at the protests on 28 November:

"Do you serve Russia or Georgia? To whom did you take an oath? I'm interested in the answer. Are you not answering to the president? You don't think about the future? No country, no children?"

Only time will tell who the Kartvelians will serve. We can only wish them good luck.

Ровно 85 лет назад под предлогом борьбы с "финской белогвардейщиной" части cоветской армии вторглись на территорию независимой Финляндии, началась так называемая Зимняя война. А вместе с ней и противостояние пропаганды – советской, финской и международной.

Чем оправдывали советские власти вторжение в соседнюю страну и что изменилось в методах информационной войны с тех времен, разбирается "Смотри в оба"

Настоящее Время:

Рівно 85 років тому під приводом боротьби з «фінською білогвардійщиною» частини радянської армії вторглися на територію незалежної Фінляндії, почалася так звана Зимова війна. А разом із нею і протистояння пропаганди - радянської, фінської та міжнародної.

Чим виправдовувала радянська влада вторгнення в сусідню країну і що змінилося в методах інформаційної війни з тих часів, розбирається програма «Смотри в оба».

Current Time:

Exactly 85 years ago, under the pretext of fighting the ‘Finnish White Guard’, Soviet army units invaded the territory of independent Finland and the so-called Winter War began. And with it the confrontation of propaganda - Soviet, Finnish and international.

What the Soviet authorities used to justify the invasion of a neighbouring country and what has changed in the methods of information warfare since those times is examined in the ‘Look Out’ programme.

Verdun 1916.

In 1916, the Great War had reached a stage where victory could no longer be achieved with a single blow. Erich von Falkenhayn, Chief of the German General Staff, saw a way out in imposing a battle on France for a point that it would defend with its last strength and grind its last reserves in protracted battles. Thus was born the idea of the Battle of Verdun, which for many years became a symbol of senseless bloodshed, the apotheosis of military madness and, as it turned out, the prototype of the wars of the future.

In today's article, together with Kyrylo Makarov, author of the historical TG channel, we will look at the dramatic story of the Battle of Verdun in 1916 - from Falkenhayn's plan to create a ‘meat grinder’ to the heroic resistance of the French, which changed the course of the First World War and left a deep mark on military history.

😐ТікТок хакнув президентські вибори у Румунії

У першому турі переміг майже нікому невідомий кандидат Келін Джорджеску, саме завдяки купі вірусних відосів у цій соцмережі.

💩Келін Джорджеску – ультра-правий політик з Румунії, затятий тіктокер, агроном, конспіролог і людина з проросійськими поглядами. За даними Reuters, Джорджеску у разі остаточної перемоги, припинить військову допомогу Україні й заборонить транзит українського зерна.

Для України можливий прихід до влади Джорджеску – це не просто поява в Європі чергового політика, на кшталт Орбана та Фіцо, які саботують допомогу ЄС. На відміну від Угорщини, яка Україні ніколи не допомагала, Румунія – наш повноцінний союзник.

▶️ Тож у відео розбираємось, хто ж такий Келін Джорджеску і чому його можливе президентство — це габелі.

Ukrainian Toronto Television:

TikTok hacked the presidential election in Romania

In the first round, almost unknown candidate Kelin Georgescu won, thanks to a bunch of viral videos on this social network.

Kelin Georgescu is a far-right politician from Romania, an avid tiktoker, agronomist, conspiracy theorist, and a man with pro-Russian views. According to Reuters, if he finally wins, he will cut off military aid to Ukraine and ban the transit of Ukrainian grain.

For Ukraine, the possible rise to power of Georgescu is not just the emergence of another politician in Europe, like Orban and Fico, who sabotage EU aid. Unlike Hungary, which has never helped Ukraine, Romania is our full-fledged ally.

So in the video, we find out who Kelin Georgescu is and why his possible presidency is a gambit.

Дуже смішна підготовка до НМТ, враховуючи що точна дата заснування Київа тупо невідома і будь яка дата є такою, що лише припускає. Історія вчить нас що заснування Київа - це приблизно V століття, але не більше.

|

It's a very funny preparation for the National Multi-subject Test, given that the exact date of Kyiv's foundation is just unknown and any date is only a guess. History teaches us that Kyiv was founded in the fifth century, but no more.

Це буквально можна прочитати навіть на українській вікіпедії навіть з посиланнями на джерела.

This can literally be read even on the Ukrainian Wikipedia, even with references to sources.

Я переглянув НМТ за 2024 рік, там питання про заснування Київа навіть не згадується 😅

I looked at the National Multi-subject Test for 2024, and the issue of the foundation of Kyiv is not even mentioned there 😅

На скільки автор каналу напише сесію з Історії України?

How many points will the author of the channel write a session on the History of Ukraine?


https://t.me/anonymousnovalentinebot?start=1190360814

Я все прочитав, всім дякую. Завтра напишу шо там вийшло.
Трохи закріпимо свої профанівські вміння ведіння власного блогу з історії :)

I read everything, thank you all. Tomorrow I'll write about my results for the session.
I'll consolidate my profane skills of running mine own history blog a bit :)

11 з 12 балів. Наскільки чесна оцінка - не знаю, так як за мене вступилися ті, хто не мав вступатися. Але вона вже є така як є. Можливо без постороннього втручання оцінка була б така ж сама, але цього ми вже ніколи не дізнаємося... На жаль.

|

11 out of 12 points. I don't know how fair the assessment is, as those who shouldn't have stood up for me. But it is what it is. Perhaps without outside interference, the grade would have been the same, but we will never know... Unfortunately.

Цікаве інтерв'ю українських істориків Віталія Дрібниці (автор каналу Vox Veritatis) та Євгена Морозенко (автор каналу Morozenko) та українських блогерів на історичну тематику Олега Сухарева (канал Історик з Харкова) та Микити Січня (канал Січень). Цікаво подивитися, щоб розширити свої знання в Історії України.

An interesting interview with Ukrainian historians Vitaliy Dribnytsia (author of the Vox Veritatis channel) and Yevhen Morozenko (author of the Morozenko channel) and Ukrainian bloggers on historical topics Oleh Sukharev (Історик з Харкова channel) and Mykyta Sichen' (Січень channel). It is interesting to watch to expand your knowledge of the History of Ukraine.
