Executive director of Ascana Holt, one of the most influential agencies in the world, Mark Hildrick, blames Bidzina Ivanishvili in spreading misinformation against Paata Burchuladze.

This was stated in a statement released by Mark Hildrid.

Ascanas Holt"s executive director criticizes Bidzina Ivanishvili for campaign against the World famous singer and says that Georgian Dream leader is trying to discredit Burchuladze.

According to Marc Hildri, Ivanishvili also lied about Burchuladze"s revenues as an attempt to discredit the singer.

"It is a disgraceful campaign against Paata Burchuladze, a member of our association, a world-renowned singer Paata Burchuladze. On March 23, 2018, the leader of the Georgian Dream tried to humilate him as a singer. Mr. Bidzina Ivanishvili gave himself the right to discuss Paata Burchuladze"s career, which we doubt that he should be aware of and have any kind of competence. He noted that in 2012 Paata Burchuladze was no longer at the peak of his career, which is not true. The opera singer"s career assessment is based on in which theaters he was singing. In 2012, Paata Burchuladze was at the peak of her career and sang in the world"s first class theaters like New York Metropolitan Opera, London Covent Garden, Paris Bastille Theater and others.

"Leader of the ruling party has also made false statements about his income.Paata Burchuladze is one of the most expensive paid singers in the world for 34 years, with several concerts in a number of cases exceeding a million GEL.

"Once again, we express our concern that a campaign to discredit Paata Burchuladze was unleashed in Georgia.

"We urge you to stop the open war against our agency`s artist! It is shameful when the ruling party of Georgia, instead of being proud of Paata Burchuladze, is trying to harm his career through managed information campaign.

"This misinformation campaign should be stopped immediately," the statement reads.
