Committee on Procedural Issues supports termination of parliamentary mandates of 49 MPs
Salome Samadashvili: I congratulate Georgia, today Europe has stood up. Today, Europe has shared the demand of the Georgian people – to appoint new parliamentary elections and to free political prisoners
Giorgi Vashadze: During the meeting with the President of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe, the topic of discussion was Mzia Amaglobeli's case. He promised that he would personally intervene in resolving this issue
Zurab Japaridze: We met with the President of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe to discuss Mzia Amaglobeli. He promised that he would do everything within his power today
Salome Samadashvili: It is a very difficult day in the history of our country - for the first time, the issue of denying the recognition of the Georgian delegation's mandate has arisen
Salome Samadashvili: The political process should take place alongside the protest—I do not believe that any politician should lead the protest
Salome Samadashvili stated that Bidzina Ivanishvili does not meet anyone, and it has reached the point where he even met with the Secretary General of the Council of Europe. She emphasized that this shows that Ivanishvili himself understands that the "Georgian Dream" is facing a crisis that it has never had in the last 12 years
Salome Samadashvili: "Georgian Dream" has become a violent regime - the European Union is not only called upon, but obliged to help Georgians in this heroic struggle
Salome Samadashvili: To spoil the relations with the West, they could not find a better person, a better slave, who would perform this task meticulously, and named Maka Bochorishvili
Salome Samadashvili: We believe that it is good and correct that the rejection of mandates and cancellation of the lists should be done jointly by all opposition forces - since this process has started, we will make a corresponding official position tomorrow
Salome Samadashvili: The four winning parties addressed a joint, official and extensive letter to the ministers of foreign affairs of the European Union
Salome Samadashvili: If the elections were held, Borrell would come out today and congratulate "Georgian Dream" on the victory
Salome Samadashvili: Today, the citizens of Georgia can save the country's European future with their own voice, refuse poverty and the Russian swamp
Lasha Zhvania: Salome Samadashvili's baseless statement regarding "disrupting the elections in Israel and leading a special operation against the democratic future of Georgia" is defamation
Salome Samadashvili: Information has arrived that in Israel, where the only precinct was opened, they are trying to take away the right to participate in the elections from more than 2,000 Georgian citizens
Salome Samadashvili: Helsinki Commission statement lays ground for condemnation of Ivanishvili’s regime if they oppose the free will of the people
The parliamentary opposition will not attend the plenary sessions of the current week due to a political boycott
Salome Samadashvili on "Georgian Dream" delegates: I would be careful in their place, if the opposition wins, I think we will see many of them standing in line to join the ranks of the opposition - "Dream" is absolutely bankrupt
Petras Auštrevičius- the path that the "Georgian Dream" is taking is an absolutely Russian, Eastern path
