The United Neutral Georgia [UNG] issued a statement calling for legal action against supporters of the United National Movement [UNM].

“While steps are being taken to declare the UNM unconstitutional and bring its leadership to justice, it is equally important to expose and prosecute the party’s voters.

The UNM is a toxic political force that continues to exist and exert moral and psychological pressure on Georgian society. It’s presence pollutes and poisons the country’s socio-political landscape.

For 12 years, the Government has been forced to manage the country under tough conditions. While focusing on economic growth, poverty reduction, and ensuring the well-being of citizens, it has also had to contend with constant upheavals and neutralize various internal and external political actors.

The UNM voters should be held accountable for supporting a criminal regime”, - reads the statement.

It also targets supporters of other opposition figures, such as Giorgi Gakharia and Mamuka Khazaradze, accusing them of backing “foreign agents” who act against Georgia’s interests.

UNG proposes that after the next elections, alongside declaring the UNM unconstitutional and prosecuting its leadership, there should be a process of exposing and trying UNM voters collectively.

They argue that this approach would help cleanse the political system and allow for the emergence of a healthier opposition.

“Every person who votes for the collective UNM bears no less legal, political, and moral responsibility than the party leadership itself”, - conclude the UNG.
