'Unpleasant with embassies'

Who translated this article (found in Jonathan Kulick's daily mailing)?

'The
Financial , February 1

According to Georgian news agency "Pirveli", president of Georgia
Mikheil Saakashvili is unpleasant with works of Georgian embassies abroad.

“Inter- action of embassies with internal and outward life of the country is
importantly reduced, what is not right resolution” –Saakashvili said at the
Foreign Ministry while today` s presenting of new minister David Bakradze.

“For today, the embassies do not face effective work, as they have been done it
before. Their financial supplement increased, staff is better salaries,
therefore we maintain them to try their best in work, but I am not satisfied
with work of no one diplomatic corpus” –Saakashvili said.

But he pointed out that “most effective works are provided by accredited
embassies to EU, UN and Washington D.C.”.'

Do we get the drift?

Funny, though, how the embassies doing the best work are those in those countries/organisations which Georgia wants to get married to most....
