Director of the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service Sergei Naryshkin, publishing available intelligence data, stated that Russia would like to prevent attempts at a "color revolution" in Georgia.
"The fact that the SVR made public the information it obtained about the hostile activities of Western intelligence agencies and government agencies, such as the US State Department - we are doing this in order to contribute to preventing attempts at a "color revolution" in Georgia," Naryshkin emphasized.
Earlier, the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service warned of the US intention to "organize a Tbilisi Maidan" in order to prevent the ruling Georgian Dream party from winning the parliamentary elections on October 26.
