Bidzina Ivanishvili, honorary chairman of the ruling Georgian Dream party, stated in an interview with Imedi TV that “The statements are largely blackmail and organised by what we call the “Global War Party”, the owners of our present opposition.”

Ivanishvili thinks “blackmail did not work; on the contrary, what I observe when I travel to the regions, the mobilisation is higher, the people are informed.”

As he noted, “incorrect and non-objective statements irritate the public.”

“As for punishment and sanctioning, that’s what they did, I think that it also backfired and it didn’t work, and it won’t work. I am not expecting anything anymore. I believe they tried everything they could to achieve their goals, but it did not work out.

I am telling the public with total confidence because I am active with this all day, 24 hours a day, and I know the regions and the city very well. Everything backfired for the simple reason that all sorts of blackmail were based on non-objective facts,” Bidzina Ivanishvili stated.
