We know exactly what kind of fight we are in, so we are not going to back down - I expect that there will be a prison sentence, - said Giorgi Vashadze, leader of the Strategy Builder.
According to his assessment, the ongoing court proceedings show that eorgian Dream is weak today.
"They are planning to finish the trial in a rushed manner. We know exactly what kind of fight we are in, so we are not going to back down, we will win and we will win in the near future. These processes that are ongoing in the court show very well how weak the regime is. If it were strong, would it try to arrest political opponents and young people? Or silence the media and undermine the legislative base? Or hide behind the police? No, it is doing this because it is weak. The main thing is to continue the fight, I expect that there will be a prison sentence.
Why are they in a hurry? I don't know, the judge is the person who sent a young man, a Georgian person who should be studying now, to prison," said Giorgi Vashadze.
