Khatia Dekanoidze, the former Chair of the United National Movement faction in the Parliament, who resigned from her post after the election of Levan Khabeishvili as the new Chairman of the UNM, left the UNM.

As Dekanoidze said, she will continue parliamentary activities as an independent MP.

“It was a painful, emotional, but correct decision. I believe that leading the party with the old paradigm is unjustified.

In general, the old paradigm in the new reality, when there is a different situation … will not work.

I promise to work inside and outside legislature to protect the rights of political prisoners, including the transfer of Mikheil Saakashvili abroad for medical treatment and the freedom of Mtavari Arkhi director Nika Gvaramia”, - said Khatia Dekanoidze.
