Mikheil Saakashvili – November 23 is approaching and Georgian people should mobilize

November 23, the celebration of St. George’s Day is approaching and the Georgian people should mobilize peacefully – former president of Georgia Mikheil Saakashvili said in Facebook Live.

Ex-President of Georgia commented about the parliament’s turning down of constitutional changes prepared by the parliamentary majority regarding transformation onto the proportional system of elections.

“As expected, Ivanishvili (chairman of Georgian Dream party) lied and put everyone at deception. . . .  This regime has no legitimacy any longer. Therefore, everything depends on us. The power is in unity,” Saakashvili said.

The constitutional changes prepared by the parliamentary majority regarding transformation onto the proportional system of elections were turned down in the parliament.

Based on the results of free balloting, the 101 MPs voted for, 3- against the constitutional draft project presented by the ruling team. The 113 votes were needed for the approval of the draft project. The 141 MPs underwent registration.
