Constitutionalists respond to Salome Zourabichvili"s scandalous statement, where she noted that the US bases are not welcomed . According to them, the president goes beyond her authority, as she does not have the constitutional authority to make similar statements on foreign policy.
The Constitutionalists do not rule out that this scandal may be the basis for political decision and impeachment.
"The statements made by Salome Zourabichvili are the part of the government"s declared policy or Salome Zourabichvili"s independent considerations " If these are independent considerations, it is possible to understand all these and consider it to be a violation of the constitution because any statement of the president in the foreign policy field, including negotiations with other countries, should be agreed with the government.
" Violation of the Constitution or the existence of a crime could be the basis for the initiation of the President`s impeachment proceedings ," - said Kote Chokoraia.
