Iago Khvichia: There are people who are just being sarcastic, they get on your nerves, that there is a draft law and "Lelo" is not written in capital letters in yellow or happy - they have no goal of correction, they want to spoil things for the prisoners

The economic parameters of Shalva Papuashvili and "Georgian Dream" will be in really good condition, but I think you have to walk on the street once and you will understand the economic situation of the Georgian people, - this is how "Girchi" MP Iago Khvichia echoes the statement of the Speaker of the Parliament that the "Heritage" Foundation of the 2024 Year of Economic Freedom In the ranking, Georgia again improved its results and took the 38th place with the index of "good faith of the government".

"In my opinion, the economic parameters of Mr. Shalva Papuashvili and "Georgian Dream" will be in a really good condition, so they are right in this, I am sure, but as for the economic condition of the Georgian people, I think you should walk once on the street, not in the center, but in the suburbs of Tbilisi and you will understand whether the economic parameters are really in order or not according to the opinion of the Georgian people. Unfortunately, I don't feel that way when I drive on the street," Khvichia said.

He also responded to the position of the opposition on the amnesty act submitted to the parliament, noting that "the people are on the fence". As for the position of "Georgian Dream" on Mikheil Saakashvili's amnesty, Khvichiya stated that it will be difficult to explain to the prisoners that the amnesty does not apply to them, because "someone is a prisoner in prison." , who has been sentenced for the same articles, and we don't want to touch him with this amnesty".

"In general, nothing stands in the way of correction, but there are people who are just lazy and don't want to correct anything. It annoys me that the opposition introduced a draft law, there is a draft law, and "try" is not written in yellow or in large letters. This is the main problem, they have no intention of correction, they just want to spoil things for the prisoners. In my opinion, we should be consistent, the leaders of "Lelo" should either decide that they are really frauds and Murusidze was right with them, or they should decide that as Murusidze and their friends messed with them, they are messing with the Georgian people in exactly the same way and they deserve freedom just like "Lelo" leaders go outside.

Mikheil Saakashvili is in prison for an official crime and has been sentenced for 6 years, this amnesty applies to people who have been sentenced to life imprisonment, and how to explain to the people who are in prison under the same articles that Saakashvili is, that the amnesty does not apply because some prisoner is in prison. Who has the same knees and we don't want to touch him amnesty?! You explain it to me, it will be difficult for me to explain it," Khvichia said.
