Sending volunteers to Ukraine by the country means direct involvement in the military conflict - we will not do that, Irakli Kobakhidze, chairman of the Georgian Dream party, told reporters.

He said organizing this by the country means sending military force into a military conflict.

"As for sending a plane, I do not know the details, it is not my responsibility and prerogative, the government is directly involved in such matters. Here the government, of course, has to make a responsible decision.

As for the involvement of the country in the military conflict, neither the US nor the EU countries do that, neither is involved in the war, they said it directly that the American and European military will not be at war. This concerns sending a military force, all this proves the only thing, the only goal of the anti-state force, the so-called National Movement with its additions, is to somehow involve Georgia in the war. This concerns sending military force into a military conflict. Are not volunteers a military force? Zelensky asked the West to get involved in the military conflict. We remember a number of reprimands, but the West did not get involved," Kobakhidze said.

Asked as to why it is not possible for volunteers to go to Ukraine from Georgia, while many countries have said that volunteers can go to Ukraine, Kobakhidze says that any person can fly to Europe and arrive in Ukraine. According to him, when people from EU member states go to Ukraine, the state does not take responsibility for it.

"This is done from Europe, but as for the organized sending of military force, it means the involvement of military force in the conflict. We can decide - should Georgia become part of an intense war? Do you think so? People who make provocation in Georgia every day want Georgia to be part of an intense war, we will not allow this, we are responsible for this before the country," Kobakhidze said.
