Alliance of Patriots of Georgia (Georgian: საქართველოს პატრიოტთა ალიანსი, romanized: sakartvelos p'at'riot'ta aliansi, APG) is a right-wing populist and anti-Western political party in Georgia.[5][7] It was founded in 2012 by leaders from the Resistance Movement, which opposed the pro-Western government of Mikheil Saakashvili.[8] Davit Tarkhan Mouravi has served as the party's chairman, while Irma Inashvili serves as its secretary general.
Being on the centre-left of Georgian politics on economic policy, its social views are predominantly right-wing.[9] The party has been widely described as pro-Russian and anti-Turkish, categorizations it rejects in favor of the label "pro-Georgian".[7][10] Moreover, the party has been accused of being financed by Kremlin, an accusation it denies.[5][11]
Silagadze
was invoked but never defined (see the help page).In 2016, a small party, Alliance of Patriots of Georgia (APG) revived a discussion about Georgia's non alignment in foreign policy. However, the reasoning behind advocating for non-alignment is different from what was in the 1990s. The starting point of APG's reasoning is that Georgia has been trying to become a NATO member for almost two decades and has not yet been successful, which for APG is an indicator that the West is not planning to integrate Georgia under the security umbrella. Even if Georgia becomes a member of NATO, APG argues, it would mean to give up hope of restoration of territorial integrity.
