Patriarch calls on “future government and opposition to cooperate and listen to each other”

"I would like to appeal to the future government and the opposition to cooperate and listen to each other," the Catholicos-Patriarch of All Georgia, Ilia II, said after casting a vote.

The patriarch voted through a portable box.

"I appeal to all Georgia to go to the polls. Hopefully this election will bring the good. I want to appeal to the future government and the opposition to cooperate, to listen to each other. I am hopeful of the future. God bless Georgia and the whole world," Ilia II said.
