The fourth round of talks - the opposition is sure that the dialogue will be fruitless

The fourth round of negotiations between representatives of the ruling Georgian Dream Party and the opposition over election system in Georgia will start at 10:00 in the Sheraton Hotel in Tbilisi.

Representatives of the Diplomatic Corps are attending the meeting. Leader of the parliamentary majority Mamuka Mdinaradze is expected to propose certain changes during the meeting.

The opposition says it expects the Government to submit specific proposals to amend the electoral system.


The Government and the opposition have already held three rounds of talks upon the initiative of foreign diplomats and international partners, aiming at reaching a consensus over amending the electoral system.

Representatives of the opposition and public movements have been holding large-scale protests in Tbilisi since November 14 following the parliament’s turning down of constitutional changes regarding transformation onto the proportional system of elections for 2020 parliamentary polls in Georgia.
