Foreign Ministry: Maka Botchorishvili held a meeting with U.S. Chargé d’Affaires Courtney Ostrien in Georgia – the sides expressed readiness to deepen bilateral relations
Grigol Gegelia: We well remember the regime’s screeching about why such a virtuous and excellent person was sanctioned - it turns out there was evidence and the USA knew very well why it was sanctioning this outcast Partsakhaladze
Lawyer: If Juansher Burchuladze had wanted to cooperate, he could have done so from the very first day; as for Gharibashvili, I am sure that a certain dialogue may have existed between them
A plea agreement will also be concluded with Juansher Burchuladze in the case of embezzlement of funds belonging to the Ministry of Defence, for which he has been sentenced to 10 years of imprisonment - the hearing will be held on 28 September
Eka Kupatadze: The lawyers were more pitiful than the criminals at today’s hearing - also, Demetre Kasradze’s father lunged at us and I was forced to call the marshals
By decision of the Minister of Education, changes have been introduced into the National Curriculum
Vato Surguladze: Under the “Dream” government, medicines have become 100 to 300% more expensive - we demand that the state introduce a co-financing programme for pensioners and persons with disabilities

Lasha Parulava: There was an agreement between Ivanishvili and Gharibashvili that Ivanishvili violated, therefore he is Gharibashvili’s target; as for the claim that Gharibashvili’s and UNM’s narratives coincide, we have been talking for years about the crimes of the “Kakhetian clan”

Tazo Datunashvili: Brotherhood with the Abkhaz people is not achieved by bringing in fuel in canisters - it is very simple that this fuel would not stay in Abkhazia, and if it did, it would serve not Georgia’s but Russia’s interests
Ana Tsitlidze to Nika Gvaramia: Name the person who took you to Gilauri - I know whom you mean and I also know why naming him may come back to you as a very bad boomerang
Lela Jejelava: Partsakhaladze’s patriotism did not suddenly appear - going to the Russian war is an obligation; Putin obliges businessmen to create their own armed groups, which they themselves will maintain and ensure are present at the front
Nika Gvaramia: I found myself with Gilauri at Saakashvili’s initiative and through the mediation of a member of his party; he himself was a supporter of Gilauri’s entry into politics: he sent friends, wrote letters, and among our funders Gilauri was only one of them
Tengiz Sharmanashvili on Otar Romanov-Partsakhaladze: If a Georgian man creates a battalion and starts fighting on the side of those who occupy 20% of your homeland, for me that person is an outcast
