Today's struggle is aimed precisely at preventing Georgian Dream from taking us where it wants to go. Let them go alone - when the protest has a face and a name, it is a very powerful weapon, and this weapon is called Mzia Amaglobeli, - the fifth President of Georgia, Salome Zurabishvili, stated in an interview with Batumelebi.

According to her, the Council of Europe has sided with Georgia by its decision, and the rest is up to society, "so that we do not reach the point where we find ourselves in isolation".

"I believe that the decision of the Council of Europe Assembly was very correct. Because on the one hand, it set very correct conditions. On the other hand, it did not terminate the delegation's authority from the beginning, and this was well thought out, because this would aggravate Georgia's isolation. This is neither their goal nor ours, the only possible goal of Georgian Dream is to make Georgia find itself in deeper isolation. Therefore, it was the right decision, but the answer that the Georgian delegation gave was very wrong. This is not surprising precisely because what we have seen and witnessed recently is a step by step process that is leading to the exclusion of Georgia from its partners, from its friends, which have been a pillar since independence, and to isolation where we will be left with only one neighbor, a patron, with whom relations will never be built on equality. Therefore, isolation is destructive and unacceptable for us, and we must try in every way to maintain and, on the contrary, strengthen relations with foreign partners. In this, too, the example of Mzia Amaglobeli is very important. These are countries [partners] that deeply value individuals. It is one thing when you tell them that people are coming out en masse, but when this protest has a face and a name, it takes on a completely different dimension. We may not fully understand this yet, but this is a very powerful weapon and this weapon is called Mzia Amaglobeli,” Salome Zurabishvili said.

In addition, Salome Zurabishvili answered a question about the telephone conversation between Bidzina Ivanishvili and French President Emmanuel Macron and noted that there was probably no second call.

“I met [Emmanuel Macron] a few days ago after his stay in America. He really cares for Georgia, for the very sensitive issues called political prisoners, human rights and democracy. I do not rule out that he does not care for Ivanishvili any more, but that is not for me to say. As far as I know, there has not been a second call so far, I do not know if he is going to do it or not,” Zurabishvili said.
