Shalva Natelashvili reaffirms his support for Rustavi 2 and calls on the government to stop the fight against the free media.

"If Rustavi 2 is closed, people will come out in the street and, probably,the elections will be held at another time, in another mode, and other formats, which is not desirable . It is desirable that the authorities refuse to fight televisions , to stone their opponents and thus save their own skin.
