There was also the fifth name in the chat - Nishinanidze, who advanced to the second round - it seems that formula 4/1 was used, which was not convincing or understood even by the opposition groups until the end, and the deal was blamed on us, while the National Movement acted like outraged, - MP Nato Chkheidze said in the Parliament.
As she noted, the National Movement forgot about this last name at yesterday's briefing, however, this was not forgotten by Georgian Dream, which, according to Chkheidze, seems to be going to fulfill its promise, because Nishniadze has advanced to the second round.
"After yesterday's vote and the subsequent briefings, when the situation should have been explained, the opposite happened, there is now more to be explained for the public and for me too. During the briefing of the National Movement, I don't know if it was due to sincerity, persuasiveness or conspicuity, they said about the chat message that there were four surnames: Salia, Sajaia, Tsikarishvili and Mukhashavria, and they said that these four surnames were included in the chat, they forgot that the fifth last name in that chat was Nishnianidze, but this was not forgotten by Georgian Dream, which is generally not very promise-fulfilling, but in this case, it seems, they wanted to fulfill some promise, and one of the candidates who went to the second round is Nishnianidze. There was also the fifth name in the chat - Nishinanidze, who advanced to the second round - it seems that formula 4/1 was used, which was not convincing or understood even by the opposition groups until the end, and the deal was blamed on us, while the National Movement acted like outraged. Of course, I will have questions with some members of the National Movement faction. Ask Bezhashvili - when there were 5 candidates in the chat, why did he say that there were 4?" - said Chkheidze.
