Female members of the United National Movement (UNM) staged a protest performance outside the residence of Bidzina Ivanishvili, the founder of the ruling "Georgian Dream" party. IPN reports the event.

The participants brought syringes, using them as a symbol linked to the issue of drug proliferation. The main slogan of the protest was the call: "Bidzina, don't kill our children!"

Ana Tsitlidze, a UNM leader, stated: "Bidzina Ivanishvili has turned this country into a massive haven for drug dealers, because he himself is the country's chief drug dealer—shielding the drug trade and killing our youth day by day."

Tsitlidze cited figures regarding deaths she attributed to overdoses in 2026.

"These syringes are a symbol of Bidzina Ivanishvili's rule. With these syringes and drugs, Bidzina Ivanishvili kills dozens of our young people every day. Here is some brief data for Georgian citizens to illustrate the point: on March 20, 2026, a 26-year-old man died of an overdose; on April 30, a 23-year-old; and on May 15, four young people. In June and July 2026 alone, ten young people died from overdoses. In September, two 21-year-old men died of overdoses in Tbilisi, and a week ago, girls aged 16 and 17 were detained for working as drug couriers. This is the reality Bidzina Ivanishvili has created," the opposition politician concluded. She also added that "drugs do not choose political affiliations; they do not care whose child it is—whether of a 'National Movement' supporter or a 'Georgian Dream' supporter—they kill our children just the same."

According to the protester, the authorities' actions are "destroying the Georgian gene pool."

"We have come here today—mothers, women, grandmothers, and sisters driven to despair because their children cannot feel safe in this country. Bidzina Ivanishvili must know: these syringes—symbols of his rule, of the destruction of the Georgian gene pool, and of Georgian young men and women poisoned by drugs—represent something he will never get away with.

While he lectures us on Orthodoxy and Christianity, he must realize that he himself is the country’s chief 'drug pusher,' making millions of lari off the deaths of our children: while his own children live in the lap of luxury, he is poisoning ours with drugs. Today, we declare to the country's chief 'drug pusher': do not kill our children!" stated Ana Tsitlidze.
