Hello, Dear Prime Minister

I'm very sorry that I can't address you in Georgian but I live In US. I've been a supporter of President Zviad Gamsakhurdia since I was 20. My Grandmother and our President's Mother have been dear friends so I love him dearly, always have and always will. For me He's not dead, he will live as long as our Georgia lives and our Motherland will live forever.

I was the Student in Tbilisi University, I was studying Law, in 1992 I was going to graduate, I wrote my Diploma Theme about the history of our Country's independence and I described everything what happened in Georgia in 1992: I even mentioned that President Bush and the State Secretary Baker were behind it. The day when I had to defend my Theme, all of my Professors demanded from me that they weren't going to let me graduate until I was going to change my Theme. I refused and left the University. It happened in May 15 of 1992, that day there was a Meeting in president Gamsakhurdia's house so I went there and it was even announced in there that I've left the University.

In 1993, Joseliani's "men" tried to kill me in my house but my neighbors saved me. We left Georgia in 1994 and came in US. Our, mine and my Mother's, Political Asylum have been granted in here.

I'm 33, I live in New Jersey and I'm going to graduate Law School soon. I think that I can do something for our Country, I can't just sit in here and do nothing, I've been at all Meetings and Demonstrations before April of 1989, after that time, and after the Putch and I want to do something now. Please let me know, Dear Prime-Minister, how can I help?

Sincerely,
Tamara Gugunishvili

Многоуважаемый господин Гугушвили! 

Общественность в Украине также протестует против войны в ЧРИ как и в Польше, Грузии, Турции и других странах. 26 марта в день выборов президента России группа Международная амнистия в Одессе провела пикет возле консульства РФ. Были лозунги антивоенного содержания 500 человек милиции охраняло подходы к консульству Все прошло мирно. Газеты это событие проигнорировали, за исключением демократической газеты "ЮГ". Вот такая информация. 

Всего Вам доброго! Станислав Огоровый

Добрый день, многоуважаемый господин Гугушвили! 

Я, Станислав Огоровый из Одессы, занимаюсь преподаванием прав человека в школе. 26 марта в день выборов Путина в Одессе было проведено пикетирование консульства РФ на тему прекращения войны в Чечне. В Украине сегодня существуют 5 информационных центров по Чечне- Киев, Львов  ОДЕССА. активно работает одесская группа международной амнистии. Но по активности в поддержку народа Чечни по моему стоит на первом месте в мире - Польша.  

Я желаю Вам удачи.

Обращение
 
к общественным, государственным и др. организациям Грузии,
ко всему грузинскому народу

Второй раз за последние шесть лет на чеченской земле идет беспрецедентная, варварская война, возможно, являющаяся частью большого сценария. Это- война без правил, которая кровавым несмываемым пятном ложится на совесть всех равнодушных, нанося непоправимый ущерб делу мира и демократии, прогрессу человечества.

Стало ясно, что все общепризнанные нормы и законы Международного права, малоэффективны против грубой силы, ставящей мировое сообщество в зависимость от себя. Другими словами - от интерессов и политики отдельных лиц, обладающих силой и властью, т.к. в мире не выработан механизм защиты от подобных чеченскому, сценариев. Если не решить эту проблему, то пожар войны может расшириться... Свидетельством тому нерешенные междугосударственные и внутригосударственные конфликты и противоречия, раздирающие народы и государства мира, которые как тлеющие угли легко могут охватить огнем весь мир. Ожесточенность в человеческом обществе сегодня достигла критической точки и злу, катастрофически расширяющемуся в мире, необходимо противопоставить Добро и здравый смысл, объединившись- спасти мир и наше будушее. Мы- представители народа, на протяжении веков, пролившего на своей древней земле море крови в борьбе за свою свободу, уничтожаемые, от новорожденных до глубоких стариков, гонимые со своей разрушенной и обездоленной земли, преследуемые по надуманным и необоснованным предлогам, сградающие из-за беззакония и произвола в мире, неотступные в своей праведной борьбе, в последней надежде на понимание и поддержку...

Обьявляем:
О возобновлении, приостановленного из-за чинимых препятствий деструктивнимы силами, Международного Марша Мира под эгидой: Мир и Права Человека.
 
Целью Марша является:
1. Объединение сил Добра, Справедливости и Человеколюбия против зла и насилия, несправедливости и человеконенавистничества.
2. Прекращение российско-чеченской и других войн.
3. Урегулирование межнациональных, внутринациональных конфликтов и противоречий. Сбор подписей за признание права чеченского народа на
самоопределение.
4. Создание Всемирного Центра Защиты Прав Человека, с наличием реального механизма действия, являющегося посредником справедливого  законного урегулирования любых спорных вопросов и конфликтов.

Первый этап Марша Мира планируеться начать от с. Дуиси, Ахметского района Грузии, с 23. 02. 2000г., и он пройдет через:
Азербайджан, Армению, Казахстан, Россию, Белоруссию, страны Прибалтики, страны Европы.

Призываем:
Всесторонне поддержать и по возможности стать участниками планируемого Марша Мира!
Только совместными усилиями народы Кавказа и мирового сообщества смогут сохранить наш Общий Дом прекрасную землью, экологию, добиться мира и согласия на нашей земле и процветания всех народов мира.
В добрый путь Мирный Кавказ!

Thank you in advance for your kind cooperation.
Yours sincerely,
For the Commissioner General,

Assistant Adviser

==================================================
AllGeorgian St. Ilia The Righteous Society
Dear  the Commissioner General,
An VANDEVEN;
Dear Mr. Edward Peters-Dickie
AllGeorgian St. Ilia The Righteous Society was established in 1996-1997 by Merab Kostava and Zviad Gamsakhurdia as a National Independence public organization fighting for National Independence of Georgia, decolonization and deoccupation from the Russian army. After the death of Merab Kostava (in masterminded by KGB car crash) in 1990 organization was leaded by Zviad Gamsakhurdia.
AllGeorgian St. Ilia The Righteous Society (officially registered as political organization in 1990) is a member of alliance of national independence political parties and organizations named "Round Table - Free Georgia" which gained First (last and lonely) free, multi-party and democratic elections of Georgian Parliament by 73% in Oct. 28th 1990. So, from the point of view of Western political standards, AllGeorgian St. Ilia The Righteous Society is a ruling party.
AllGeorgian St. Ilia The Righteous Society has its representatives in the Legal Parliament of Georgia, Legal Cabinet of Ministers and Legal local governments. In 1991 Z.Gamsakhurdia - Head of AllGeorgian St. Ilia The Righteous Society -- Speaker of the "Round Table - Free Georgia" was elected as Chairman of the Parliament and in May, 26th 1991 as the First President of Georgia by votes of great majority of Georgia's population (87% of votes) and in August 1991 member of Board of AllGeorgian St. Ilia The Righteous Society -- member of board (Round Table) of the "Round Table - Free Georgia" B.Gugushvili was appointed as the Prime Minister.
AllGeorgian St. Ilia The Righteous Society as the member of the "Round Table - Free Georgia" was initiator of the Referendum for Independence of Georgia in March 1991 (the first and lonely referendum among Kremlin's colonies on this most important problem for all the USSR) - which really destroyed this version of Russian Empire.
After putch and que d'etat of Dec. 1991 / Jan. 1992 organized by Kremlin and corrupted Western forces interested in Caucasian Oil -- by hands of criminals (3.5 thousand convicted criminals and narcomans - drug edicts were especially released from prisons and armed to be used against legal government) and Russian special forces, KGB -- General Legality and all Legal branches of State President, Parliament, Cabinet of Ministers and local governments were exiled, Constitution was abolished and colonial pro-Kremlin puppet 'government' was established. Legal branches of state were functioned in Chechen Republic. Two sessions of Parliament took place in Grozny during 1991-1993.
In 1993 due to the total and strong public Resistance and Civil Disobedience, and especially after high treason against Georgia in Abkhazia by criminal regime of Shevardnadze, General Legality was reestablished and the Legal Government renewed activity in Georgia (Western Georgia). Legal Parliament had two sessions in Zugdidi and from August 1993 President Gamsakhurdia and Cabinet of Ministers returned from exile. Board of AllGeorgian St. Ilia The Righteous Society  also was reestablished. Region of Restored Legal Government rapidly spread its influence over whole Western Georgia and towards Eastern Georgia, capital Tbilisi without any use of military force and bloodshed. There was not force inside Georgia which can over perform public resistance.
In October/November 1993 to save puppet regime of dictator Shevardnadze Kremlin started powerful armed intervention in the Western Georgia - Dzerzhinski Division and and landing forces from Sevasopol were sent and Legality in Georgia again was destroyed, Western Georgia was once again occupied by International Interventional Corps (Russia, Ukraine); President Gamsakhurdia was perished. Legal authorities were forced to exile, many of it's members including PM's were arrested, tortured and imprisoned.
Since the coup and que d'etat human and citisen rights have been rudely violated towards members of AllGeorgian St. Ilia The Righteous Society. They and even members of there families(!) were and are severely persecuted by regime -- forced for collaboration. Many of them were killed, tortured, 'disappeared', imprisoned; Much more were dismissed from jobs in state or private sector; Private businessmen who support Legal authorities are also oppressed and not given opportunity to work (they all are deprived sources of income, life), etc. Economic and social oppression is important and broadly used part of general repression used against supporters of Legality.
Many members of AllGeorgian St. Ilia The Righteous Society were killed and persecuted during Russian-Georgian war in Abkhazia and Samachablo (so called South Ossetia) by Russian guerrilla and special forces, by local separatist extremists.
All members of AllGeorgian St. Ilia The Righteous Society are included into secret "Black List" by political police of regime.
This facts are fixed by international Human Rights organizations and are well known.
Supporters of Legality are persecuted not only in Georgia, but they also are chased after in other parts of CIS. Many political prisoners in Georgia were captured, kidnapped and secretly eliminated by secret services in different cities of Russia and other CIS countries by renamed Georgian KGB some times without presenting any criminal charge.
At present there are branches of AllGeorgian St. Ilia The Righteous Society  in Georgia which are united on the ground of  general principles divided from the point of tactics. Organization is functioning inside the alliance "Round Table - Free Georgia".

From the point of view of all branches of AllGeorgian St. Ilia The Righteous Society

  • So called 'parliament', 'government' and 'president' of Georgia all are illegal,
    criminal, puppet, anti-National, anti-Georgian, colonial establishments; They
    are collaborative institutions of colonial rule of Kremlin;
  • Georgia is a colony of Russia incorporated in the 'new USSR' - CIS occupied
    by Russian Army; Russian Army in Georgia is occupational army;
  • General political statute of Georgia is the same as of so called Friendly
    Socialist States during presence of old USSR (East Germany, Poland,
    Chekho-Slovakia, Hungary, etc.).

From the point of interests of yours organization -- The office of the Commissioner General for Refugees and Stateless Persons (CGRA/CGVS) -- I call you to support members of AllGeorgian St. Ilia The Righteous Society as well as members of all other organizations of the alliance "Round Table - Free Georgia" seeking political or other asylum in Belgium.

Dear Professor Gugushvili,

...
I am 32 years old. I run a charitable foundation that provides social services to hospitals, that provide care to children with cancer. I have sent a variety of gifts to the Moscow Children's Cancer Center in the past. I have also been active in medical outreach to children affected by the Cheyrnoble accident.

I do not have any direct contact to Chechnya. Nor do I speak the language. It is my understanding that there is no representation for Chechnya in California. Aila has informed me that no Chechen representation exists in the U.S.A.
...
With this in mind, I would like to know what channels I should explore in order to see if I may send an official letter to an appropriate person in Chechnya, or wherever you would like me to send a letter. I would also need to see if the U.S. State Dept. would allow me to become involved with Chechnya.

I am a bit naive about this type of relationship. I have a business background and maintain two office suites in the Los Angeles area. I have a clear personal history and have financial resources to taken on a (voluntary) position as Honorary Concul.

I have read that when a country doesn't have a diplomatic representative in the U.S., another term, such as Charge de Affairs, or Dossier is or can be used. I mention this, that if one position is not available, another may be more appropriate.
...
I am sincere and interested in pursuing this request through proper channels. I look forward to hearing your thoughts sir.

Would you happen to be related to a Mr. Gugushvili who was involved in an organization called the "Caucasian Committee" based in Paris during the 1930s and 1940s?

I have run across references to this man in some of my research but I have been unable to find any information on either him or the Committee itself (although I do know that the Committee had some connection to Noe Jordania). There appears to be very little in English about any of this, even about Mr. Jordania (whom I have been able to find only the briefest of biographical sketches).

Dear Sir, Madam,

I am an associate of the Refugee Aid Council in Rotterdam, Holland. At the moment I am dealing with a client form Georgia. With regard to this, I am looking for information on Mrs. Dodo Telija/Turudzhadze, who, so my client says, is a relative of hers. Could you please confirm if mrs. Telija/Turundzhadze was/is an important memeber of the Zviadists in Georgia? Any info on her would be most welcome.

I hope that you can help me out and that you can send me an answer as soon as possible, as this is a rather urgent matter.

Thanks for your cooperation,

Andrй Wierenga
Refugee Aid Council,

Hello!

I have read your fine document on Georgian fonts.

Unfortunately, I failed to understand something there. I would like to set up Windows 95 or NT with Georgian language support - Unicode, keyboard and all. Would you be so kind to explain how I should do this?

It's a real urgent need - PLEASE HELP!

Thanks in advance.
Sincerely yours,
Mikhail Ramendik

Subject: Georgia, refugees in exile

Amsterdam, March 21 1997

Dear lady, sir,

After reading your webpages with the enormous amount of information on Georgia, the Georgians and their struggle (compliments !), I thought I should write you with a question.

For a Georgian friend of mine who's in exile in the Netherlands, I am looking for a video recording. It's a recording of a television broadcast of a meeting of the followers of Zviad Gamsakhurdia and their political opponents, in Tblisi, Georgia on September 21, 1991. This video recording would be of great importance for my friend as material in his court trial, in supporting his request for asylum.

Could you please answer me whether you know of the existence of such a videotape or whether you have any suggestion for a direction to continue my search for it?

I did already send e-mail to the Zviad Gamsakhurdia Society in the Netherlands, but didn't receive an answer yet.

I would be very grateful for your help and answer.

Sincerely,
Peter A. Baan

Subject: Political writings of Zviad Gamsakhurdia (in Georgian/English)

Dear Mr. Gugushvili, I am an American Caucasologist who is currently studying the relationship between Nik'o Marr and his defecting Georgian students around 1917 and the subsequent founding of fields of study distinct from Japhetidology in Tbilisi at that time (Caucasology, Kartvelology).

I am interested in doing further work in elucidating the relationship between Zviad Gamsakhurdia's thought and these intellectual predecessors, particularly the role that themes developed by both Marr and Javakhishvili separately or totgether play in Zviad's work. The thought of Georgia's ex-president is still very ill-understood in the west, and there is a widespread (mis) perception that it lacked coherence. I hope to show the opposite.

I am aware that Zviad wrote a number of ephemeral pieces in relation to the Mingrelian question and the Abkhazian question during his short period as president and before, but I do not have access to them, since I have been unable to return to Georgia since I developed these interests (I was in Georgia from 1992-3 during the Ossetian and Abkhazian conflicts).

I am a linguist whose specialty is Georgian, so I will be able to provide my own translations, though for ease of reference English sources are also desired. I would very much appreciate it if you could help me locate these materials, I would be immensely gratified to hear from you.

I can be reached by mail at [email protected] (I do not know if there is an additional address point after 'edu' for 'USA'). Any help you can provide would be wonderful, I look forward to hearing from you.

Dear Mr. Gugushvili,

I found your name as the official foreign affairs representative of the president of Chechen Republic Ichkeria on the Internet.

I am the International Editor of Coin World, the largest weekly hobby publication in the world for coin collectors. I am seeking information on new bank notes for Ichkeria in "nakhar" denominations I have been told have been printed but not released.

Could you please provide information on the plans for currency (both coins and bank notes) in Ichkeria, what denominations may be released and when? Any information on coin or bank note designs is also appreciated.

Thank you.
Cordially, Coin World

HI!

MY NAME IS SPARTAK NIKOLADZE.

I THINK IT IS POSITIVE TO SEE THE CHECHEN STATE OPERING IN THE WORLD. FIGHTING FOR INDEPENDENCE FOR A LONG TIME WAS HARD FOR CHECHEN PEOPLE. SINCE SHAMILS (IMAM OF DAGHESTAN) DEATH THERE WAS NO IDEA FOR INDEPENDECE UNTIL JOHAR DUDAEV CAME TO THE POWER.

I AM GEORGIAN AND I AM INTERESTING THAT IF THERE IS ANY RELATION BETWEEN CHECHNIA AND GEORGIAN GOVROMENT.

GOD BLESS CHECHNIA AND ITS PEOPLE.
