We have recently been witnessing peaceful protests with fewer protesters free of political actors mobilized by aggressive groups, such transfiguration of demonstrations is welcomed. Such a statement made today the Speaker of the Parliament.

“We have been seeing the forces, which do not seek peace, tranquillity, solidarity and doing work within the framework of political law and constitution. I would say openly that those who instigate disorder, harm the country and the Georgian people.

Enough time has passed since the beginning of protest rallies. We have heard protests, discontent, claims and reprimands. For the whole period, we have tried to respond to everything step-by-step and methodically, trying to explain that the right to freedom of expression and manifestation is protected, while the attacks on police officers and mass violence would be averted.

We attempted to explain that there is no Chelyabinsk, there is only Georgia, its capital Tbilisi and its main avenue - Rustaveli. The days and nights come. The country, despite everything follows the normal pace of usual lifestyle as before, during the last 12 years. We follow our goals and objectives step-by-step, methodically and consistently. We are moving forward to the European integration the integral part of which is free and fair elections, like the one which we conducted on October 26. The Georgian Dream won the polls with the vast majority of votes, securing 1,120,000, i.e. 54% of votes”, - said Shalva Papuashvili.
