Archil Gorduladze: “We see that Bolshevism has returned in the Baltics in a modern form, but with old names and surnames. It’s no surprise that governments controlled by the ‘deep state’ act as they did in the Bolshevik Soviet Union and Nazi and fascist West.”

Corruption must be treated at the same level as treason against the country — regardless of a person’s surname or origin, this level of betrayal, which involves facilitating or participating in large-scale corruption, will not go unpunished!

Former “Georgian Dream” MP and veteran wrestler Luka Kurtanidze, who is accused of domestic violence against his ex-wife, intentional damage to her property, and violation of the terms set by a restraining order, denies the charges.

“The idea of Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia is to somehow bring Georgia under Russian aggression so that threats toward the Baltic countries are reduced — that’s the scenario!” – this is how the First Vice Speaker of Parliament, Gia Volski, explains Lithuania’s decision to impose visa sanctions on various representatives of Georgia’s government branches.

“Lelo” and the “Gakharia for Georgia” party do not confirm the information that their candidate for Tbilisi mayor will be Aleko Elisashvili, who is reportedly set to be officially announced on July 31.

The lead investigator in the case of the 11 individuals detained during the protest, Arsen Khunashvili, stated that “a direct connection between the defendants and the organizers of the crime has not been established.”

The former MP of "Georgian Dream" and veteran wrestler, Luka Kurtanidze, has been officially charged by the Prosecutor’s Office.

“Georgian Dream” is in a panic — and rightly so. Anyone who thinks they’ll arrest me easily is very mistaken. Let’s wait and see who arrests whom.”

“This is not a total fight against corruption!” The people who are being targeted do not represent the main centers of power — fighting elite corruption does not mean poking around former officials! Fighting elite corruption means confronting current, influential, powerful figures, and we are not seeing that — we are far from it, and under this government, we won’t see it.

U.S. Embassy: “The ‘Agile Spirit’ exercises clearly demonstrate the United States’ commitment to the stability of the Black Sea region, as well as the strength and importance of allied cooperation.”

“This is a matter of dignity! I’m not going to write to someone I would have been a better president than when I was in third grade, and I don’t even know if they would read it,” said humorist Onise Tskhadadze, detained during protest rallies, at a court hearing.

“As time goes by, I’m increasingly hearing that if I apologize, they’ll let me go, and this applies to the others too. It’s very hard to find a polite response to this, but woe to your wretched master who demands this!” said actor Andro Chichinadze, who was detained during protest rallies, at a court hearing.

Persecution will begin against those mayors who are not nominated as candidates now — their verdicts have already been written. Kakha Kaladze, meanwhile, is fighting to stay in the system, which means he is fighting for his own survival. He will do everything to become the mayoral candidate.

Irakli Kobakhidze and Bidzina Ivanishvili must answer why they placed those parties in second and third place which are participating in their legitimacy games. Who actually believes that the GORBI poll is neutral? — Bidzina Ivanishvili wants to have a systemic opposition, and some are doing this either willingly or unwittingly, said Levan Sanikidze, one of the leaders of the United National Movement, in response to the GORBI poll.

“To claim that there is no evidence in the case is an unfounded position. All investigative leads will be explored, including an evaluation of [Juansher Burchuladze’s] actions during the investigation process,” prosecutor Irakli Marshania told journalists regarding the case involving former high-ranking officials of the Ministry of Defense.

“This is the only fate that those complicit in the crimes of this regime will firmly face,” said Grigol Gegelia, one of the leaders of “Lelo-Strong Georgia,” commenting on Lithuania’s imposition of visa sanctions on 10 more Georgian citizens.

“Yesterday, we made chicken cutlets using [Giorgi] Akhobadze’s recipe, and it coincided with news about sanctions, so we enjoyed them even more deliciously. I want to tell everyone serving the regime that much better sanctions are coming,” said journalist Nika Katsia, who is accused of drug-related crimes, during a court hearing.

The former Deputy Minister of Defense, Giorgi Khaindrava, the former head of the Ministry’s Procurement Department, Vladimer Ghudushauri, and the brother of Juansher Burchuladze’s wife, Vasil Mkheidze, have been ordered detained as a preventive measure.

The exposure of the “Russian interference” conspiracy of the century by the new U.S. administration has confirmed that labeling something as “Russian” is a tactic formulated in one center, implemented in other countries through bribed politicians and NGOs, wrote Parliament Speaker Shalva Papuashvili on social media, sharing a music video by singer Zaza Nozadze titled “Liberal Zazas.”

The lawyer of Vladimer Ghudushauri, the former head of the Ministry of Defense’s Procurement Department, Dimitri Mchedlishvili, is requesting his client’s release on a 100,000 GEL bail.
