"We have information that at the end of the month, Giorgi Gakharia plans to announce that he will participate in the local self-government elections," – said the Prime Minister of Georgia, Irakli Kobakhidze.

According to the Prime Minister, it is not of interest to "Georgian Dream" whether "Gakharia for Georgia" participates in the elections, as "the radical opposition spectrum is doomed to defeat."

“Giorgi Gakharia is afraid of bullying from other parties, and that’s what his posts are about. It’s not of interest to us – they can participate, or not, either way, the entire radical opposition spectrum is doomed to fail. In all 64 municipalities, we will win both the mayoral and city council elections,” – stated Irakli Kobakhidze.
