As it has just got known from a reliable source in president Saakashvili's immediate entourage, Mikhail Saakashvili â" who is known to be allegedly grappling with corruption practices among Georgian executive administration (which does not extend to members of his own clan!) â" has laid out a good round sum of $3,000,000 to his uncle Mr Alasania to help on advancement of a resolution bearing on the matter of Georgians' genocide and ethnic cleansing carried out by Abkhazians during the 1992-93 war.
I think that Mr Alasania who holds the rank of a UN envoy of Georgia, will get a certain percentage of this sum as a reward which will make him very enthusiastic to work it off making up all possible lies and distorting facts to represent Abkhazians as cruel and merciless people who were annihilating Georgians. While in actual fact, it was all just the other way about, for Abkhazians were the party affected by genocide by Georgian army.
I think that this episode clearly demonstrates that the UN should be careful taking on trust what proceeds from such medieval-type states like Georgia. All that their governors may assert should be double-checked by independent commissions. It is also crucial not to make unrestricted funds available for them, even though it is supposedly done in order to advance democracy there. That's what Washington always leaves out of account.
