The German Embassy in Tbilisi stated on 9th November that a “peaceful Revolution is possible”, citing exactly 35 years earlier, on 9th November 1989, the fall of Berlin Wall. The Embassy stressed that “freedom is not something we can take for granted even today”.
The fall of Berlin Wall was a significant milestone in the fall of communism throughout Central and Eastern Europe. The Embassy stated: “For decades the GDR kept their citizens in a system oppression and violent. The people of the GDR, with their courage and desire for a life of self-determination in freedom, brought down the Berlin Wall.
The statement continued by saying that “together, with other courageous people from Central and Eastern Europe they laid the foundations of German reunification, and for a united, free Europe.” Even today, we cannot take freedom for granted. We must fight for it. Now and then. “Here and everywhere.”
The statement is noteworthy in light of the repeated scaremongering of the increasingly authoritarian GD Government about alleged plans of a revolution, which they blame on “radical opposition”, civil society and Georgia’s international allies.
