According to Giorgi Gakharia, the leader of the "Gakharia for Georgia" party, the candidacy of Salome Zurabishvili as the Prime Minister is one of the best options that must be on the table for consideration.
As Giorgi Gakharia said in the "PalitraNews" program "Resume", the biggest challenge for Georgia today is how to open negotiations with the European Union, and the current president is the most suitable figure to achieve this goal.
"Our main political line is that we create a government that will not be controlled by "Georgian Dream" or "National Movement", whose main mandate in the coming years will be to open negotiations with the European Union. Salome Zurabishvili, of course, is one of the best candidates to achieve such a task. This process itself, starting from the charter and the patronage that it provides to protect the country's European perspective, the resources that it has accumulated in the course of the last few years, of course, can be used in any case," said Gakharia.
When asked to what extent Salome Zurabishvili's prime ministership is considered, Gakharia said that it is one of the best and working options."This issue was not discussed. As you know, Salome Zurabishvili is the president. We have always respected the institution of the President. It does not happen so easily, her will must be taken into account. I don't know if he wants it or not, but there was no discussion about this idea [in the opposition]. My political team's assessment is that this is one of the best and workable options.The biggest challenge for Georgia today is how to open negotiations with the European Union exactly in half a year. This is the main thing. We should all admit that the current president is the most suitable figure to achieve this goal," said Giorgi Gakharia.
