Appointing Bacho Akhalaia as the defense minister means that Saakashvili's goal is to finally destroy the Georgian army, leader of Democratic Movement - United Georgia, Nino Burjanadze, said to press conference on August 31.

According to her, with this appointment, President is trying to subordinate the army and carry out police reforms in the Armed Forces. Burjanadze said that Saakashvili finally abandoned the development of the Georgian army and tries to reconcile people with the loss of Abkhazia and Samachablo.

She said that the President appointed such a man to the post of defense minister who not only has no experience in the military sphere, but is a symbol of lawlessness, injustice, and devotion to Saakashvili.

"This man is very far from democratic values. He violated human rights and ignored all democratic values," she said.
