If Gakharia thinks that in the event of failure in this phase of the struggle, he will wash his hands of the rest of the opposition and save himself, he is gravely mistaken, because there will be no other phase of the fight – either we win, or we all perish. This is what Tina Bokuchava, the chairperson of "Unity National Movement," wrote on social media.

According to Bokuchava, drawing an equivalence between the "Russian Dream" and the "National Movement" with a campaign-type narrative is treason against the common cause.

“The post by Gakharia’s party, which was published and then removed, actually reflects a much bigger problem.

In reality, where Ivanishvili is taking the country from us, drawing an equivalence between the 'Russian Dream' and the 'National Movement' with a campaign-style narrative, despite our differences, is an attempt to pedal false narratives, fuel Ivanishvili's propaganda, fragment the opposition, and betray the common cause. We are at war and need to decide whether we are fighting together or against each other.

If Gakharia thinks that after the failure of this phase of the fight, he will wash his hands of the rest of the opposition and save himself, he is gravely mistaken, because there will be no other phase of the fight. Either we win, or we all perish. In a settled dictatorship, Ivanishvili won’t need Gakharia as an opposition or as a player in the democracy game.

When speaking from the moral pedestal, he should remember that high-ranking officials of the 'National Movement's' government are also part of his team. I mostly studied abroad during that period, but I recognize political responsibility and share it.

Finally, since Gakharia himself initiated the discussion on mandates, when will he write a statement about leaving the illegitimate parliament? Does he really think the public will accept the argument that he needs a mandate for immunity? So, what does he tell the thousands of demonstrators who face the threat of arrest every day without immunity?

For moral clarity, this seems to me to be a much more important question than the fake accounting that Gakharia offers, which is actually written in Ivanishvili’s accounting books,” wrote Bokuchava.
