The crisis and confrontation in the "Georgian Dream" - the opposing MPs may be excluded from "the Dream". Following the confrontation with regard to the list of judges,the question of dismissing Eka Beselia from the team may be raised, however, the MPs refrain from giving specific answers.

"I have expectations after reading this statement that this process will be conducted correctly, that is , by adopting the right law and then by selecting candidates in compliance with this law. The final decision should be made by the Parliament, that is no matter who is offered, we have to decide about the specific names by individual voting and the majority of MPs should take individual decisions, "- Tamar Chugoshvili said.
The confrontation was caused by a list of 10 judges to the Supreme Council of Justice . Members of the parliamentary majority are demanding to recall the list and develop new criteria.
