The fate of the next generation will be decided in this year’s election. It is not a normal election. We have to fight against an unprecedented political machine that wants to cement its years-long anti-Western rhetoric and formalize a sharp turn towards Russia. 🧵

We welcome the proposal brought up today by President Salome Zourabichvili to form a common vision for pro-Western parties on the reforms necessary for our European integration. We join the Georgian Charter initiated by the President.

It’s beginning. Parliament just abolished the CEC Advisory Group, a group of international observers and Public Defender reps meant to oversee the Central Election Commission This is the first legal attack against international elections observers. civil.ge/archives/610396

As Chair, Levan Khabeishvili built the first-ever party democracy infrastructure in Georgian history, while navigating major national crises that he almost paid for with his life, and reshaping UNM’s role as the only economic reformer in 🇬🇪 All that in just over a year. Thank you.

What I never hear from far-right parties that constantly talk of “sovereignty” is plans to boost national security and defense. It’s almost as if strengthening European/national defense wasn’t the aim of those movements.

Very glad to see my fellow MPs Tamar Kordzaia and Armaz Akhvlediani join the ranks of UNM as we build a nationwide coalition to defeat the GD Russian agenda. The more united we stand, the stronger we are!

A shameful new bill was passed by Parliament at a time when most of the Opposition, us included, is in the midst of a boycott. The Funded Pensions Act amendments completely erases the semblant of independence that the Pension Fund had. ⬇️

Zurab Iashvili was a hero. A brave man who fought for freedom in Ukraine. He was killed by Russian terrorists. It is our responsibility to make sure no one on the battlefield made the ultimate sacrifice for nothing. We must win. For Zurab. For everyone else. And for our future.

There’s a lot of noise around the Georgian elections. Let’s be clear Number 5 is the only unity that stands against economic dependence on Russia, against Chinese-imposed slavery, and will not rest until Georgia becomes a full-fledged member of the EU and NATO As simple as that

For the first time this century, the US will not provide financial assistance to the Georgian military As fmr Chief of the Joint Staff, I must say how disappointing this decision is. But I understand it. American taxpayers should not have to subsidize an anti-American government

Never forget… The names of the heroes who lost their lives defending our nation The courage of the people who never wavered in their belief in a European future The solidarity of the world against Russian imperialism Never forget August 7.

There’s no word that can convey the emotions at a time of war. So afraid for our families, for our nation There’s not one man I served with back then who showed fear though. They all knew they were continuing 3000 years of history of defending Georgia. We lost too many of them

Reminder that barely a week has passed since the deadly tragedy in Zugdidi that saw 6-year-old twins die in an apartment fire, caused by a candle that was lit because the mother didn’t have enough money to pay the bill And it feels like we’ve all gotten back to normal

Not even to mention the tragedy of the Abkhaz culture completely disappearing, from local heritage sites to the Abkhaz language itself - and all because of Russian occupation.

Türkiye 🇹🇷 will seriously undermine its own regional influence if it joins BRICS, especially in the South Caucasus. Aligning with a Moscow-Beijing alliance will weaken its strategic partnerships in the whole region and will relegate it to a second-hand power. Time to reconsider!

Because, my good sir, Russian propaganda, through Tucker Carlson, started a Hitler rehabilitation campaign by portraying Churchill as “the real villain of WWII”. Churchill was the greatest hero of the 20th century. Tucker Carlson is a nobody.

🇬🇪 Last night, United National Movement (ენმ) Tbilisi Assembly members Irakli Nadiradze & Irakli Edzgveradze were assaulted & kidnapped by police, unreachable for hours—even by their lawyers This came after PM Kobakhidze threatened violence against opposition. They want scare tactics over debates
