I will personally be the initiator of banning wearing masks on the street and for participants in rallies. Do you see how many problems are created, they throw stones, they shoot special forces. We can't figure out who it is, you either find him or you don't, now someone attacked a journalist, you either find him or you don't, such terrible things happen. This is my opinion, - the executive secretary of "Georgian Dream" Mamuka Mdinaradze said on the air of "Imedi".
As Mdinaradze mentioned, his initiative needs legislative support and he believes that this topic will have support. He also asked the opponents how acceptable it is for strangers to move around wearing a mask.
"Irakli Kobakhidze and I talked about this topic yesterday and Shalva Papuashvili is also of the same opinion, I know, but now this moment has come. I am sure that my friends and colleagues will support me, especially the representatives of the majority, to move around wearing a mask... whoever wants to wear a mask, sometimes throws a stone at a policeman, sometimes hurts a journalist, sometimes attacks a cameraman, and then investigators run from street to street, maybe with their eyes to know someone. Actually, this needs legislative support, for which I personally, as a person and a deputy in this particular case, will be a natural initiator and I agree, and I think that this issue will have a response from the testimony as well. Let's ask our opponents, if some vermin or provocateurs, more provocateurs, are running around wearing masks, will they agree? This is my sincere attitude to the bravery I saw a few minutes ago", said Mamuka Mdinaradze.
As is known, "TV Pirveli" journalist Maka Chikhladze and cameraman were attacked and physically assaulted while working on live broadcast.
