'Saakashvili Fandarast.' I don't like his politics at all. Everything
is being sold, and it's terrible." "I agree with
Sanakoyev. Kokoity can go wherever he wants, but he must get away from
us and Georgia. He's the only reason for the conflict in South Ossetia." "I'd say these
words with great pleasure to Kakha Bendukidze [the State Minister for
Reforms Coordination]. It's not worth it having him in our government.
He's impolite and has no idea about politics. I can't stand him." "I really
don't know. I would probably say this to many politicians, like Putin,
for example. As for Georgian politicians, I would say it to many of
our ministers." "So many leaders
deserve to hear this. I think Putin deserves it, though I hope that
in a year from now we won't be hearing 'Misha Fandarast.'" "It's an interesting
question, but I don't want to put blame on someone and demand that they
leave their post. Sure, many politicians in Georgia-and the world-should
be told to go, but I don't think it'll make any difference." "I find it
difficult to choose just one. There are a bunch of them I would see
off the post. Say, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad for his nuclear
ambitions. Although to be honest it wouldn't be fair to point only at
him, with other countries-irrespective of their size and importance-still
maintaining the same destructive weapon." "Ok, let's
imagine. Russian President Vladimir Putin, for all his dedication and
supportive contribution to secessionist conflicts, and for undermining
Georgian sovereignty. But I doubt this would help at all. His successor
will probably preserve the tradition." "The same:
the separatists Kokoity and Bagapsh. I just doubt their political leadership
skills. But putting them into the context of 'world leaders' is doing
them far too much credit." |
Vladimir
Sanakoyev recently opened a campaign in South Ossetia called "Kokoity
Fandarast," meaning "Farewell, Kokoity" in Ossetian.
The campaign's goal is to peacefully get rid of Eduard Kokoity, Sanakoyev
said. If you could say "fandarast" to one world political
leader, who would it be and why?
