The United States is determined to change the government in Georgia after the country holds its parliamentary election in October, Russia’s Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR) said.
"The information that the SVR has been receiving makes it clear that Washington is determined to change the government in Georgia after the country’s October 26 parliamentary election. The Joe Biden administration has already developed a large-scale information campaign aimed at smearing the ruling Georgian Dream party," the statement reads.
Georgian President Salome Zourabichvili is supposed to play a key role in fueling anti-government sentiment: she will give an interview to a U.S. media outlet, which could turn out to be a "color revolution", RIA Novosti reported.
"The main plot of a scenario concocted 'straight out of Hollywood' has now become known. With its usual anti-Russian fervor, the White House intends to build the propaganda activity on a sensational revelation, blaming Russia for all of Georgia’s problems," the statement reads.
It was noted that the focus will be on promoting accusations against the ruling party Georgian Dream of lacking political independence, which threatens to steer Tbilisi away from the European coast.
