Salome Zurabishvili failed as an opposition leader, this is a fact. Zurabishvili failed to unite the opposition, including around herself, - one of the leaders of the Unity-National Movement, Ana Tsitlidze, stated on PalitraNews.

According to her, when the National Movement went to meetings with Salome Zurabishvili along with other opposition parties, it did not expect that Salome Zurabishvili would “do anything”.

According to her, despite expectations and attitudes, the National Movement did everything for unity.

“The National Movement did everything for unity, not because we thought Salome Zurabishvili was a queen and could do anything. Not because we forgot Salome Zurabishvili’s statements from her previous life, or many of her actions - no! We, the National Movement, believed that despite the differences, the attitude towards Salome Zurabishvili, her unfair position towards Mikheil Saakashvili, we did everything for unity, so that the process would be more fruitful. Despite personal attacks, insults, including at internal meetings, we endured a lot, because we believed and still believe that a united front is what will defeat this regime.

Salome Zurabishvili failed as an opposition leader, this is a fact. Zurabishvili failed to unite the opposition, including around herself.

When we went to meetings with Salome and participated there, we did not have any expectations. I had no expectations, and neither did the National Movement, but this society wanted to see itself. I remember that when Salome came to rallies, they called her a "queen", they thought that Salome Zurabishvili would do something. Even when they called her a 'queen', I didn't expect that she would do anything," Tsitlidze said.

In addition, Tsitlidze spoke about the local self-government elections and noted that participation in the elections on October 4 will be tantamount to treason.

In addition, in her opinion, the party that will participate in the local self-government elections will be damaged itself, and at the same time it will be good for lustration, because it will become clear once and for all in the opposition field who the real opposition is.

You should be principled in this struggle. Anyone who thinks that he will participate in the local self-government elections, will harm himself and will pay the price for it with the voters. In fact, this is good for lustration, because it will become clear once and for all in the opposition field who the real opposition is,” Tsitlidze said.
