Moscow, October 29 (New Region, Natalia Anikin) – The blogger and journalist Roman Dobrokhotov accused of lying about the authors of the plot elections in Georgia and the outcome of President Mikhail Saakashvili, published yesterday in the air of the Russian State TV channel “Vesti 24».

«The fact that Russian television is lying – that’s no secret. Cringe and manipulated the facts, ignores the truth, pulls out of context. But such a blatant and stupid lie I still had not seen – and just take down utterly misquote elementary statistics that each student can check two mouse clicks “- writes in his Dobrohotov Facebook. “I think they (the TV people – approx.,” HP “) believe that their audience is so stupid that it will not check anything” – suggests a journalist.

«Russian TV:” Georgia’s GDP during the reign of Saakashvili fell three times – in 2002, Georgia’s GDP stood at 16 billion dollars, and now barely reaches 5 billion. ” In fact: In 2002, Georgia’s GDP amounted to 3.396 billion, and now stands at 15.83 billion, that is, it has not declined three times, and increased 5 times, “- he said.

Dobrohotov added that “in the past year, Georgia’s GDP grew by 6% (in Russia – 3.4%), and this year is expected to grow by at least 4% (in Russia – 2%). Hello from sunny Georgia Putin ».

journalist noticed the false figures and statistics on unemployment and the level of corruption in Georgia. “Russian TV:” Unemployment has increased over this period from 12.5% ??to 15%. ” In fact, in 2002, unemployment in Georgia was 15.9% at the end of 2012 – 15.0%. That is the level of unemployment in the country is not fundamentally changed, “- writes Dobrohotov.

Referring

corruption in Georgia, the Russian state channel said referring to some international experts estimate that the level rose. “In fact: in the period from 2002 to 2012 in the corruption perception index Transparency International Georgia has risen from 85 seats to 52 seats. During the same period, Russia has slipped from 71 seats to 131 seats – writes Dobrohotov. – That is, 10 years ago, Russia was less corrupt than Georgia, and now divides us 80 (!) Locations. Another hello to Putin and Russian TV channel from sunny Georgia ».
