“We have asked many times the political entities and parties that support the boycott what their plan was, how they intended to defeat ‘Georgian Dream,’ and not once have we heard an answer to this,” said Tata Khvedeliani, member of the party “For Georgia,” on PalitraNews’s program “Resume,” commenting on the formation of the “Opposition Alliance” by part of the opposition parties.

As Khvedeliani noted, the various forms of unification created by the opposition revolve around the boycott and October 4, which was previously planned within the ranks of “Georgian Dream.”

“We were also surprised before how these parties and entities were not uniting, because they all have the same foundation anyway — ‘National’ origins. However, the most important component for us is that for every party recorded in this unity, the boycott is acceptable, and this ideology is acceptable to them. October 4 was acceptable to them, and everything that happened on October 4. Accordingly, this unification revolves around this ideology. The boycott was a mistake for us; it was a gift to ‘Georgian Dream’ that these parties gave them. We have asked this question many times to the political entities and parties that support the boycott — what plan they had, how they intended to defeat ‘Georgian Dream’ — and not once have we heard an answer to this. These unities revolve around the boycott, around October 4, and all of this is a provocation planned within the ranks of ‘Georgian Dream,’ which these political parties followed.

Our main question is: with what plan do the political entities and parties that support the boycott intend and attempt to defeat the regime, how do they oppose it, and by what means do they intend to achieve the goal?

(The parties supporting the boycott) dealt a major blow to street protest with October 4, because in reality, the legitimacy that ‘Georgian Dream’ lacked was restored precisely as a result of October 4. The voter of ‘Georgian Dream,’ in whom there were many questions, who very adequately assessed the violent acts of ‘Georgian Dream’ and saw what they were doing, after October 4 returned again as a supporter of ‘Georgian Dream’ because this process was marginalized. The nature of the peaceful actions of October 4 was changed. Specific political entities are responsible for this,” Tata Khvedeliani stated.
