The crisis that unfolded last week in the autonomous republic of Ajara was directly related to Georgian President Mikheil Saakashvili’s desire to hold free and fair elections and Ajaran leader Aslan Abashidze’s intention to manipulate the results.

When Saakashvili was on his way to Ajara on March 14 to campaign and press for free and fair elections, Abashidze was, as is often the case, in Moscow, seeking political support.

 ReliefWeb » Document Preview » Saakashvili's Ajara success: Repeatable elsewhere in Georgia?
The strict limits imposed on Ajara's constitutional autonomy after Abashidze fled to Moscow are unlikely to make compromise offers of the kind that won community support in Ajara look attractive to the two regions that began asserting their independence as the Soviet Union collapsed.
With Ajara's autonomy so tightly curtailed, however, the likelihood that there will be significant decentralisation of decision-making seems in doubt.
The former regime ruled through a tight-knit system of patronage networks, within which one's position was dependant on the expression of full loyalty to the leader and his family.
