United National Movement and European Georgia respond to Irakli Bakhtadze"s statement that the opposition"s only goal is to discredit Bidzina Ivanishvili.

" They will appoint someone like him, who will continue to commit the same crime. They rob people. We have to get rid of Ivanishvili in order to change the situation," - says Murtaz Zodelava, the head of UNM"s Samegrelo regional organization.
Sergo Ratiani, member of the parliamentary faction "European Georgia" calls on Bakhtadze to realize that all the former Prime Ministers and Bakhtadze himself, are only instruments in Ivanishvili"s hands to extend his governance.

"First of all, Bakhtadze should not forget that Ivanishvili"s benevolence does not last long," said Sergo Ratiani.
