There is really no time to waste on utopian and unrealistic issues, we must continue our struggle not with false expectations, but with a political and party platform, - Tina Bokuchava, the chairwoman of the United National Movement, told journalists after the opposition's meeting with the fifth President of Georgia, Salome Zurabishvili.
According to her, the family members of political prisoners have specific expectations regarding the elections and the future plans of the opposition, although, unfortunately, "there are no unified positions on any of the issues mentioned."
“The sole purpose of my coming here today was to convey the message of the family members of political prisoners - they have specific expectations regarding local self-government, opposition unity, and the future development of the protest, including its expansion to the regions, but unfortunately, we see that there are no real unified positions on any of these issues. Therefore, today, when the regime is launching a new wave of repression and directly announcing the banning of political parties, in my opinion, time is the most precious thing. There is really no time to waste on utopian and unrealistic issues. Therefore, we must continue our struggle not with false expectations, but with a political and party platform,” Bokuchava said.
In addition, she responded to the statement of the so-called Foreign Ministry of Tskhinvali that those guilty of unleashing military aggression, who gave the order to invade “South Ossetia,” must be punished.
According to Tina Bokuchava, the so-called Ministry of Foreign Affairs of occupied Tskhinvali welcomes the blaming of the war on Georgia.
“Members of the occupation regime, as well as the Kremlin and their propagandists, in one voice, welcome, along with Tsulukiani, Ivanishvili and other members of the Russian “Dream”, the commission that is trying to rewrite Georgia’s recent history in Russian and blame the war on Georgia, whereas there is a decision of the Strasbourg Court, the Hague Criminal Court, which confirm that Russia invaded Georgia, that Russia is guilty and an occupier. The truth of Georgia, the Georgian command and the Georgian state has been proven,” Bokuchava said.
