As the Georgian Parliament Speaker Shalva Papuashvili wrote on the social network X, the foreign-funded NGOs are ready to adapt to any donor agenda, even if it requires their cardinal volte-face.
,,President Trump stated there are only two genders.
Watch the person in charge of Georgia’s richest NGO struggle to answer the same question, now that the president of her NGO’s biggest donor country changed the position. I am sure she ‘knew’ the certain answer before but not any more.
This miserable situation reveals two fundamental things:
First, the foreign-funded NGOs have no values or positions of their own, let alone the societal values that they vow to represent. They are ready to adapt to any donor agenda, even if it requires their cardinal volte-face.
Second, through many years of lavish foreign funding, a cohort of politically organized lobbyists of foreign interests formed, which suppressed and eventually replaced the genuine civil society.
Now, instead of being a social force that glues the society together, some richly funded NGOs “serve to destabilize world peace by promoting ideas in foreign countries that are directly inverse to harmonious and stable relations internal to and among countries,” as stated in the U.S. President’s executive order on ‘Reevaluating and Realigning United States Foreign Aid.'
There are encouraging signs that the new U.S. Administration tires to face the challenge and to turn the pseudo-aid into an extended hand of mutual friendship," - Papuashvili wrote.
