Reducing the protest to leaving a building or staying there and the idea of physically protecting the residence devalues the protest, - the leader of the Gakharia for Georgia party, Giorgi Gakharia, writes on social networks.
According to him, the people defend much greater and more important values and that is why the protest is successful.
Gakharia demands the release of those detained at the rallies and the timely announcement of a specific date for the appointment of new elections.
"The president is not legitimized by attributes, especially by a building. The source of legitimacy is the trust of the people.
Reducing the protest to leaving a building or staying there and the idea of physically protecting the residence devalues the protest.
The people defend much greater and more important values on Rustaveli, that is why the protest is successful.
We must take care of people! Belief in victory! Unity around the goals and values of the protest! Only in this way will the protest become truly comprehensive.
Release all illegally detained political hostages unconditionally!
Announce a specific date for new elections in a timely manner!” - Gakharia writes.
