Specify the place and issues - I accept the challenge!I, Tinatin Khidasheli, the former Minister of Defense of Georgia, who spent my entire professional career fighting for Georgia's Euro-Atlantic future, a person who has been on the road between Brussels and Washington for more than 25 years, to attract more benefits for the country, more strategic partnerships, more programs.

I, the person who fought for the first time in the history of Georgia and obtained from the Americans a contract tailored to the tasks of Georgian defense capabilities for the Georgian armed forces (instead of a training contract for peacekeeping missions), I am ready for any public debate with a man who calls himself the Prime Minister of Georgia and from the day of his appointment to this post, the destruction of the European perspective of the country, Suspension of the American training program, termination of the strategic partnership with the USA, international Financial institutions managed to stop the programs. And finally, Yanukovych's brother-in-law announced that at this historic moment, when the door of the European Union was opened for a new expansion, until 2028, it suspends the process related to the accession to the European Union and will no longer apply to the European Union with the request to open accession negotiations."

"Come and let's have a public or non-public discussion regarding any issue. If it turns out that they are right, of course, nothing stands in the way of making any decision" - where to come, when, on which broadcast, - Tina Khidasheli wrote on the "Facebook" page.
