In Georgia, the country's president was called a representative of the “war party”

The President of Georgia is an ordinary oppositionist and representative of the “war party.” This was stated by the executive secretary of the ruling Georgian Dream party, Mamuka Mdinaradze. “Unfortunately, today Salome Zurabishvili is not the president of the people who elected her... She is a representative of a certain party, which in Georgia we call the party of war and betrayal,” the politician said.

The “war party” is, according to the leaders of the “Georgian Dream”, significant politicians abroad who seek to drag Georgia into a war with Moscow and open a “second front” against Russia. At the same time, the opposition “United National Movement” and its comrades in the ruling party of Georgia are called a “local party of war.”

Salome Zurabishvili has repeatedly spoken out against Moscow’s aggressive policy in the post-Soviet space and called on her country’s government to provide assistance to Ukraine. However, the post of president in Georgia is of a secondary nature; the main levers of power are concentrated in the prime minister and his cabinet.
