Tbilisi. International Society for Fair Elections and Democracy (ISFED) informs about one more organized network operating on Facebook.
Since the run-up to the 2018 presidential elections, ISFED has been monitoring behavior of websites operating against both opposition and ruling parties on Facebook. Two large-scale operations, carried out by Facebook against Georgian websites, groups and accounts, confirmed links that these websites have with both “Georgian Dream”, the ruling party, and “United National Movement”, an opposition party. With the 2020 parliamentary elections approaching, there can also be observed a large-scale campaign in favor of one more party - the “Alliance of Patriots of Georgia” on Facebook. It is noteworthy that this network, along with the positive campaign carried out in favor of the “Alliance of Patriots”, leads a clearly negative, discrediting activity against both the ruling party and, especially, other opposition parties”, - is stated in the information released by ISFED.
