Vakhtang Gomelauri on personnel changes in the Ministry of Internal Affairs: We retired, we aren’t young, we're 50 years old - did I talk to Bidzina Ivanishvili about leaving? - None of your business
Paata Manjgaladze: Dictatorship cannot stand movement - the dictator stands while we sit, as soon as we stand, he can no longer stand and leaves
Levan Sanikidze: It is better for the parties not to enter elections than to enter and sign of being Ivanishvili's systemic opposition
Giga Bokeria: Another politician is in prison as a result of political persecution
Paata Burchuladze: We must be able to hold a congress; we need to create a Third Republic. Just like there were mixed opinions about digital elections, now people are also questioning how this can be done — but it is necessary
Michael Gahler: Ivanishvili’s regime is imprisoning Nika Gvaramia in yet another attempt to silence the opposition; it reminds me of Belarus
Rasa Juknevičienė: Georgia is sinking deeper and deeper into authoritarianism – it is shameful how little the EU member states are doing in response - Sanctions on Ivanishvili and his enablers, now!
Rihards Kols: Georgia is sinking deeper into autocracy. Opposition leader Nika Gvaramia is imprisoned. We must take action before Georgia becomes the next Belarus
Nika Gvaramia: I obey the Constitution of Georgia, not the 'Georgian Dream’s' constitution. If I have to pay for that with imprisonment, so be it — I will. I will go wherever necessary, and enforcement will take place: they will put me in prison

Citizens block Melikishvili Avenue
Giorgi Vashadze: Mate Davidze is not being punished for a crime, he is being punished for fighting for freedom - they cannot silence us! They cannot stop us!
Mamuka Khazaradze: The court, which serves the regime, today presented Mate's head to the master as a show! This shameful decision is another fatal mistake by Ivanishvili!
Kote Ioseliani: The interrogation was a mere formality, I have no expectation that the case will be investigated and solved
Kote Ioseliani: I want to address Uta Ivanishvili - if you want to talk to me, call me, and I will speak with you personally - I have zero trust in the Ministry of Internal Affairs
Kote Ioseliani: My case was a classic abduction, a well-planned operation led by special services – after being forced into the car, they put something like a blindfold over my eyes - none of the individuals were identifiable, all were wearing masks
Kote Ioseliani has been summoned for questioning by a magistrate judge
Ana Tsitlidze: Levan Ioseliani’s speech and the reactions to it show that you cannot sit on two chairs at once – when Tsulukiani and Tsilosani mock you, that’s the fate you face when you sell yourself to the Russian regime for a high salary
