Salome Zurabishvili: I do not know what kind of scenario they orchestrated around Elisashvili, but I do know one thing - this 13-year sentence has nothing to do with justice
Gia Volski - The OSCE has put an end to the authority of its own observation mission - behind the resolution lies the political interest of a small group, although this group determines the results of the vote
Elene Khoshtaria: All four leaders of the Coalition for Change worked directly with Gilauri. He did not give orders or instructions, nor did he make becoming the coalition's prime ministerial candidate a precondition for his involvement
Mikheil Saakashvili: A large part of the opposition has become similar to the “Kots” (Georgian Dream supporters) because they lack sincerity; they no longer even dare to use the word “dictator” and have the same desire as Ivanishvili - and perhaps even more - for me to shut up, but I will not be silent

Irakli Kobakhidze - You know very well who Salome Zurabishvili is - this "Strikaza" should not talk about others
Shalva Papuashvili - In the latest report, the European Parliament equated itself with Russia's occupation policy - the resolution once again confirms that the EU bureaucracy has effective steps to take to restore dialogue with Georgia
Giorgi Sharashidze: It will definitely not be an easy walk for Kobakhidze in Parliament - I hope he will have enough courage to name the person who called from the ‘deep state’ as well
Salome Zurabishvili addresses Foreign Ministers of EU Member States with an open letter
Salome Zurabishvili: We saw Ukraine and Moldova take their first steps toward European integration, where Georgia should have been, but is not because of Russian pressure and the regime holding power
Shalva Papuashvili: When we have a choice between listening to Brussels or to the Georgian Church, we choose the Church; Brussels may not like it, but those who are upset by it can drink a glass of cold water
Salome Zurabishvili: The time has come to form a united front - it is time for national unity
Salome Zurabishvili - Armenia, your fight is our fight - these elections will determine your democratic European future
Irakli Kobakhidze: Mr. Fischer is clearly confused
Salome Zurabishvili - What has happened in the last few years is a seizure of democracy and the state - now we have reached the point where we must either save ourselves or submit to dictatorship
Gia Volski - Our ambassador to Germany has been nominated for so long and this topic has not been properly discussed there
Salome Zurabishvili at Black Sea Security Forum - Russia is waging a hybrid war, where Georgia is a test model
Irakli Kobakhidze: When 5,000 people come out in response to calls from Nika Gvaramia, Zurab Japaridze, Salome Zurabishvili, and similar figures, this can even be considered a success for the opposition
