	Eduard Shevardnadze - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Eduard Amvrosiyevich Shevardnadze (Georgian: ედუარდ შევარდნაძე, Russian: Эдуа́рд Амвро́сьевич Шевардна́дзе; pronounced ed-oo-ard am-vro-see-ye-vitch she-va-rd-nad-zuh) (born 25 January 1928) is a Georgian politician.
		Shevardnadze joined the Communist Party of the Soviet Union in 1948 after two years as a Komsomol instructor and rose through the ranks to become a member of the Georgian Supreme Soviet in 1959.
		It was estimated by outside observers that Shevardnadze's inner circle controlled as much 70 per cent of the economy: his wife edited and wrote for one of the country's major newspapers, and his daughter was the director of a film studio and one of the country's leading mobile phone networks.

	The Betrayal of Democracy in Post-Soviet Georgia
		Shevardnadze also accepted the exclusion of the Georgian language as an official language of Georgia until widespread protest forced the Soviet regime to reaccept Georgian on a par with Russian within the republic.
		Shevardnadze also issued the ridiculous warning that an electoral victory by Revival would be a "coup d'etat." In a country where the police force is four times larger than the military, Shevardnadze evidently intended for Georgian voters to go to the polls in a climate of fear.
		Shevardnadze may be planning another war against the relatively prosperous region of Adjaria to remove Abashidze in the near future (perhaps with the aid of his new US helicopters).

		To celebrate the resignation of President Eduard Shevardnadze, supporters of the Georgian political opposition have been parading through the streets of Tbilisi.
		The flag isn't meant to imply that Saakashvili favors feudalism—he's usually characterized as a pro-Western reformer—but that the opposition is fed up with Shevardnadze's autocratic ways.
		In 1999, the Georgian parliament voted to change the flag, and all Shevardnadze had to do was issue a supportive decree.
