Certain groups have already started preparing to participate in so-called elections, which is abnormal, said Levan Khabeishvili, one of the leaders of “Unity National Movement,” after a meeting initiated by Paata Burchuladze with part of the opposition and non-governmental organizations.

The elections that Bidzina Ivanishvili is holding have a high chance of being rigged, so anyone participating in these elections is deceiving themselves, said Paata Burchuladze, a member of the “Rustaveli Avenue” alliance, after a meeting with part of the opposition and the civil sector.

Some Georgian emigrants are asking the Baltic countries and the European Union to impose sanctions on the “false witnesses and other representatives of the repressive regime.” The information has been shared by a group of Georgian emigrants.

The head of the Center for Economic Policy Research, Gigi Gigiaze, stated that the congratulatory letter allegedly sent in the name of U.S. President Donald Trump to Mikheil Kavelashvili for Georgia’s Independence Day should be published as an official document.

We greatly appreciate Hungary’s support for Georgia’s European integration and our shared commitment to regional peace and stability, wrote Georgia’s Prime Minister Irakli Kobakhidze on the social network X.

The Prime Minister of Georgia, Irakli Kobakhidze, met with the Prime Minister of Hungary, Viktor Orbán.

According to Giga Bokeria, chairman of the “Federalists” party, the letter from Bidzina Ivanishvili, honorary chairman of “Georgian Dream,” is “yet another shameless admission of betraying Georgia’s national interests.”

Bidzina Ivanishvili is only interested in his finances, the possibility of recovering his finances, and for this, he sacrifices and exploits Georgia’s national and state interests, said Irakli Kupradze, the general secretary of "Lelo - Strong Georgia," commenting on the statement issued by Bidzina Ivanishvili, the honorary chairman of "Georgian Dream."

Bidzina Ivanishvili is losing those who were his closest, most trusted, and his pillars of support. He is essentially left exposed, relying solely on Irakli Kobakhidze, - this is how Georgia's fifth president, Salome Zurabishvili, assessed the resignation of Vakhtang Gomelauri as Minister of Internal Affairs.

I am so interested in resetting Georgian-American relations that I even informed the American side that I was ready to spend the blocked funds not for personal purposes, but for any purpose they dictated, since money has never been my interest, neither before nor now, - this is what the Honorary Chairman of “Georgian Dream” states in a statement he released, in which he explains why he refused to meet with the U.S. Ambassador to Georgia, Robin Dunnigan.

Along with the refusal, we offered the US Ambassador a meeting with the Prime Minister – the Prime Minister is under neither formal nor informal sanctions, and therefore, he cannot have any complexes related to personal blackmail,” wrote Bidzina Ivanishvili, the founder and honorary chairman of “Georgian Dream,” in a special statement responding to today’s statement from the US Embassy in Georgia.

The honorary chairman of "Georgian Dream," Bidzina Ivanishvili, has issued a statement explaining why he refused to meet with the U.S. Ambassador to Georgia, Robin Dunnigan.

After President Trump’s congratulations, this statement from [the embassy] is somewhat strange, said Parliament Speaker Shalva Papuashvili regarding a statement issued by the U.S. Embassy, which noted that Bidzina Ivanishvili, honorary chairman of "Georgian Dream," refused to meet with U.S. Ambassador to Georgia Robin Dunnigan.

“Ivanishvili has thrown away another person/toy, as he cannot tolerate ‘used goods.’ Following Liluashvili, now it’s Gomelauri’s time. He has nowhere to go — neither to Europe, as he is on the Magnitsky list, nor to the U.S., where he is listed among terrorists and killers. Ivanishvili doesn’t care and threw him away like a ‘worn-out rag.’

Refusing to meet with the American ambassador is a refusal of strategic partnership and friendship with America, and of all the benefits that Georgia has received from its Western partners over the past 34 years, — this was stated by Giorgi Vashadze, leader of “Strategy - Aghmashenebeli,” in response to information released by the U.S. Embassy, according to which Bidzina Ivanishvili, honorary chairman of “Georgian Dream,” declined a meeting with U.S. Ambassador Robin Dunnigan.

"Resetting relations is fundamentally important because the attitude that existed over the years is categorically unacceptable — America should be our strategic partner, our friend, and not a ruler," said Kakha Kaladze, General Secretary of Georgian Dream, responding to the statement from the U.S. Embassy in Georgia.

“We know very well that neither Gomelauri nor Kobakhidze make such decisions. All such matters are decided by Bidzina Ivanishvili. If Ivanishvili told Kobakhidze to jump off the Metekhi Bridge, he would do it.

This country has a Prime Minister and a Foreign Minister with whom they can communicate directly, not through some behind-the-scenes channels—so don’t complicate relations. This is what Irakli Zarkua, Chairman of the Diaspora Affairs Committee of Parliament, stated in response to the US Embassy’s announcement that Bidzina Ivanishvili had refused to meet with Ambassador Degnan.

The Prime Minister of Georgia, Irakli Kobakhidze, rightfully condemned the desecration of the Russian flag by a Georgian singer, calling it a trivial act of arrogance, stated Sergei Gavrilov, a member of Russia’s State Duma, in a comment to journalists.

Ivanishvili didn’t want to establish a partnership with the Americans. Everything is a lie about them believing in Trump. No one recognizes Kobakhidze and his so-called ministers, – this is how Khatia Dekanoidze, one of the leaders of "Unity – United National Movement," responded to the statement by the U.S. Embassy, which said that Bidzina Ivanishvili, the Honorary Chairman of "Georgian Dream," refused to meet with the U.S. Ambassador to Georgia, Robin Dunnigan.

According to the US Embassy, Bidzina Ivanishvili, the Honorary Chairman of “Georgian Dream,” refused to meet with US Ambassador Robin Dunnigan in Georgia.
