From October 1, 2012, to the present day, Georgia and Georgian Dream government have had to walk this tightrope to maintain continuous peace within the country. The Honorary Chairman of the Georgian Dream, said this in a statement.

“The tangible progress we all observe is the result not only of our efforts and dedication but also of our navigation along the tightrope we have traversed over the past 12 years and continue to tread today.

Indeed, until recently, we refrained from discussing this topic publicly to avoid disheartening the populace. However, from October 1, 2012, to the present day, Georgia and the Georgian Dream government have had to walk this tightrope to maintain continuous peace within the country, amidst constant attempts by external and internal enemies to incite revolutions and disrupt our nation—to prevent a recurrence of the turmoil experienced in neighbouring Ukraine and what we endured in 2008. We aim to avert a torrent of violence raining down upon our cities, villages, and children!

The public needs to understand that while navigating this tightrope, our primary struggle remains centred on our independence, peace, freedom, and the protection of our faith, culture, history, and those values for which we united on October 1, 2012! Our political team has successfully led Georgia and its people to victory, achieving 12 years of continuous peace. As we approach the concluding stretch of this arduous path, we must demonstrate to the world once again an unprecedented example of unity by mobilizing en masse for the October 26 elections. We must ensure that no one casts even the slightest doubt on the support of the Georgian populace for the Georgian Dream.

Let it be clear that the people of Georgia choose not war - but peace; not foreign agents - but a team that safeguards the interests of the Georgian people; not pseudo-liberal values - but values rooted in nationalism, family, faith, and independence; not the downright unacceptable reality that radical opposition and foreign actors wish to present as Europeanism - but the dignified European future of our country”, - writes Bidzina Ivanishvili.
