Tina Bokuchava: The only requirement is to hold new elections, which will not be conducted by the CEC controlled by Kalandarishvili and the State Security Service, but by the election administration staffed by international actors
The only demand that can be rational in this context is the holding of re-elections, which will not be conducted by the CEC controlled by Kalandarishvili and the State Security Service, but by the election administration staffed by international actors, Tina Bokuchava, the chairperson of "Unity - National Movement", said at the end of the meeting of the opposition parties. Then he told the journalists.
According to her, the purpose of today's meeting of the opposition parties was for the parties to plan their future steps.
"Yesterday, a very important rally was held, which was attended by tens of thousands of Georgian citizens. The absolute majority of Georgian citizens made the European choice in the historic elections of October 26. The European choice won and Bidzina Ivanishvili stole this victory from the Georgian people. The fact that we will not accept the results of these elections, the results of these stolen elections, that we will not give legitimacy to the results of these stolen elections, we will refuse the mandates - the demonstration of opposition unity yesterday was very important to confirm all this, as well as the most important role of the president in this process. Accordingly, today's discussion also served to plan future steps between the parties, as well as in coordination with the president. In order for this intensive coordination and work to continue, we are now going to the presidential palace.
When the elections were not falsified by 1% or 2%, but completely hijacked. The only demand that can be rational in this context is the holding of re-elections, which will not be conducted by the CEC controlled by Kalandarishvili and SUS, but by the election administration staffed by international actors. There is international experience of this, and taking into account this international experience, it is necessary to hold new elections in order to reflect the will of the Georgian people in the parliament, the government and the administration of the government, while now the government has been hijacked", said Bokuchava.
