The Embassy of the United States of America in Georgia has responded to the issues between Credit Suisse and Bidzina Ivanishvili, the founder of the ruling Georgian Dream party.

The embassy writes on social media that Bidzina Ivanishvili knows that the money related to Credit Suisse is in the hands of the Bermuda and Singapore courts, and yet, he presents the reality to the Georgian population in a different way.

“Bidzina Ivanishvili knows that the money related to Credit Suisse is in the hands of the courts of Bermuda and Singapore, not the US. Why is he telling Georgians a different story?” the embassy writes.

Bidzina Ivanishvili’s position is that he won all the court proceedings, but he still doesn’t have access to funds, as his political blackmail is going on.

General Secretary of “Georgian Dream”, Mayor of Tbilisi, Kakha Kaladze also anounced that he closed his accounts in European banks because he “no longer trusts them” after they “robbed” Georgian Dream Honorary Chairman.

“Ivanishvili won all court proceedings and funds are being withheld on purpose, he is de facto sanctioned – his political blackmail is going on, if the time comes, we will say everything and bring it to light,” Kaladze said while talking to journalists.

He claimed that Bidzina Ivanishvili is being blackmailed with the fate of the country and notes that “the interests of the country are not being given up”.

“It’s very simple. These funds are his property. A man won a court case in Bermuda, Singapore. The decision has been made, and accordingly, who or why is withholding the said funds? Why doesn’t the person return it? Bidzina Ivanishvilo is de facto sanctioned, because he is being blackmailed with the fate of the country. They are blackmailing us to open a second front in the country, to join the sanctions. Trust me, the interests of the country will not be given up. We will maintain our sovereignty, independence and, of course, peace. No sanctions, no personal welfare. Bidzina Ivanishvili is not well known. Believe me, not a single step will be taken against the country. We will always protect the interests of our people and country.

“The man won all the court proceedings and a political decision is made on purpose. They stop the funds. There is political blackmail. I don’t want to talk about various details, but if the time comes, of course, we will say everything and state the obvious,” Kaladze said.
