"Georgia is a state, and the state will always respond appropriately to any anti-state actions. This is the reality that has been established for certain individuals," said Prime Minister Irakli Kobakhidze in response to a journalist’s question regarding the cases of Mzia Amaglobeli and Zviad Ratiani.

According to the head of government, any such actions will be met with the full force of the law.

"They have the right to slap whoever they want, but the state has the right to respond, and, of course, any such action will be met with a response under the full severity of the law. Let no one forget that Georgia is a state, and the state will always have an appropriate response to any anti-state actions. This is the reality that has been established for certain individuals," the Prime Minister stated.
